Too Much Information Lyrics
Destroyed by MTV
I hate to bite the hand that feeds me
So much information
The pressure's on the screen
To sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me
Hey TV child
Look into my eyes
Here by intervention
I want your attention
Promotion boy- in a suit 'n tie
He wants you to use it
You're too shot to loose it
It's pumpin down the cable like never so before
A COLA manufacturer is sponsoring the war
Here comes the news with love from me to you
Destroyed by ABC
I hate to bite the hand that feeds me
So much information
The pressure's on the screen
To sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me
Turn on the tube
Hits you with groove
Advertizin muzik-
We want you to choose it
These teeth are white
Trainers ULTRA-BRITE
This band is perfect-
Just don't scratch the surface
We covered all the angles the survey people said
Just put us on the cover we'd be smilin anyway
This video was made with LOVE to you
Destroyed by BBC
I hate to bite the hand that feeds me
So much information
The pressure's on the screen
To sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me
Destroyed by MTV
I hate to bite the hand that feeds me
So much information
The pressure's on the screen
To sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me
Dilate your MIND
Dilate your MIND
Dilate your MIND
Got to give it to me
Got to listen to me
Got to give in to me
Now I'm on the line
I try
I hate to bite the hand that feeds me
So much information
The pressure's on the screen
To sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me
Look into my eyes
Here by intervention
I want your attention
He wants you to use it
You're too shot to loose it
A COLA manufacturer is sponsoring the war
Here comes the news with love from me to you
I hate to bite the hand that feeds me
So much information
The pressure's on the screen
To sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me
Hits you with groove

To sell you things that you don't need

I hate to bite the hand that feeds me
So much information
The pressure's on the screen
To sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me
Dilate your MIND
Dilate your MIND
Got to listen to me
Got to give in to me
Now I'm on the line

This song is about consumerism. Simon says it's about "partners in crime".
I hope this is sung with a degree of irony, considering that Duran Duran probably owes their career to MTV and certainly don't seem to avoid consumerism themselves.
"Duran Duran probably owes their career to MTV"
That is addressed by the line : I hate to bite the hand that feeds me
This is a great song.
Yeah, but they hardly sound like they're biting said hand with any sort of reluctance.
