Mickey Mouse is dead
  Got kicked in the head
  Cos people got too serious
  They planned out what they said
  They couldn't take the fantasy
  They tried to accept reality
  Analyzed the laughs
  Cos pleasure comes in halves
  The purity of comedy
  They had to take it seriously
  Changed the words around
  Tried to make it look profound
  The comedian is on stage
  Pisstaking for a wage
  The critics think he's great
  But the laughter turns to hate
  Mickey Mouse is on T.V.
  And the kids stare at the screen
  But the pictures are all black and white
  And the words don't mean a thing
  Cos Mummy's got no money
  And Daddy is in jail
  He couldn't afford the license
  She couldn't afford the bail
  The kids out in the road
  Their minds have all gone cold
  Cos Mickey Mouse is dead
  They shot him through the head
  With ignorance and scorn
  They believed in something new
  They read the papers watched the films
  And they thought they new the truth
  But reality deceives
  Whatever you believe
  There's always another idea
  And theirs is based on fear
  The fear of being sussed
  For what you really are
  The fear of being laughed at
  When you go too far
  They call it paranoia
  You can laugh it away
  Until you come to realize
  That everyone's the same
  People hide their problems
  Under faces of contempt
  They hide them 'til it kills them
  And no one is exempt
  Not even you
  Look what you done to Mickey Mouse
