Test For Echo


TEST FOR ECHO


Here we go--vertigo
Video vertigo
Test for echo

Here we go--in slo-mo
Video vertigo
Test for echo

Some kind of trouble on the sensory screen
Camera curves over caved-in cop cars
Bleacher-creatures, would be desperados
Clutch at plausible deniability
Don't touch that dial--
We're in denial
Until the showcase trial on TV

Some kind of pictures on the sense o' clock news
Miles of yellow tape--silouhetted chalklines
Tough-talking hoodboys in pro-team logo knockoffs
Conform to uniforms of some corporate entity
Don't change that station
It's Gangster Nation
Now crime's a syndication on TV

Shat a show--vertigo
Video vertigo
Test for echo

Touch and go--vertigo
Video vertigo
Test for echo

Some kind of drama live on satellite
Hidden camera coverage from the crime scene to the courtroom
Nail-biting hoodboys in borrowed ties and jackets
Clutching at the straws of respectability
Can't do the time?
Don't do the crime
And wind up in the perp walk on TV
