First asked a long time ago by my bewildered teenage self, but it’s actually still a valid question in this new age of disinformation.
Listen:
Lyrics:
How do you know who to trust?
Who do you listen to?
When you can’t tell gold from rust
Who do you listen to?
When you don’t know where to start
Who do you listen to?
When you take so much to heart
Who do you listen to?
The guy on the radio
Used to influence me a lot
I’d sit and let him fill my head
With all the things that I was not
He’d say it was horrible outside
The guy on the radio
I’d look out my window and see
Beautiful, beautiful snow
The teachers in all my schools
Used to influence me a lot
I’d sit and let them fill my head
With all the things that I was not
They said I was a very good boy
I trusted what I heard
So when they told me not to talk
I didn’t say a word
So who do you listen to?
Who do you listen to?
