I suppose we had it coming to us
Because in fact we weren't as innocent as we meant to be
We were fed up with the way in which everything that came over
This new magic box was being swallowed
People, you know, do suspect what they read in the newspapers
And what people tell them, but when the radio came
And I suppose now television
Anything that came through that new machine was believed
So in a way our broadcast was an assault
On the credibility of that machine
We wanted to people to understand
That they shouldn't take any opinion pre-digested
And they shouldn't swallow everything that came through the tap
Whether it was radio or not
But as I say, it was only a partial experiment
We had no idea the extent of the thing
And I certainly personally had no idea what it would mean to me
