Μόλις πληροφορήθηκα το θάνατο του Ted Turner, πακέτο με τις γραφικότητες του “φίλου του” Trump περί “αξιοπιστίας” που το CNN έχασε φεύγοντας από τη δική του ιδιοκτησία. Περισσότερα για το θέμα αύριο, προς το παρόν αφιερώνουμε αυτό το Zappa classic στη μνήμη του TT. 🟡 🟡 I just learned of Ted Turner’s death, along with his “friend” Trump’s ridiculous remarks about “credibility,” which CNN supposedly lost after leaving his ownership. More on the topic tomorrow; for now, we dedicate this Zappa classic to TT’s memory.

I am gross and perverted
I’m obsessed and deranged
I have existed for years
But very little has changed
I’m the tool of the Government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you
I may be vile and pernicious
But you can’t look away
I make you think I’m delicious
With the stuff that I say
I’m the best you can get
Have you guessed me yet?
I’m the slime oozin’ out
From your TV set
You will obey me while I lead you
And eat the garbage that I feed you
Until the day that we don’t need you
Don’t go for help, no one will heed you
Your mind is totally controlled
It has been stuffed into my mold
And you will do as you are told
Until the rights to you are sold
That’s right, folks
Don’t touch that dial
Well, I am the slime from your video
Oozin’ along on your livin’ room floor
I am the slime from your video
Can’t stop the slime, people, look at me go
I am the slime from your video
Oozin’ along on your livin’ room floor
I am the slime from your video
Can’t stop the slime, people, look at me go
