The Channel Lyrics
I don't like tv
They're selling so much shit these days
And the shit is not who I want to be
I don't like officials
using rank to pretend they're not crooks
I don't like the tricks played on kids
in those shitty teen metal books
I don't like my heroes to kill themselves with the drugs
I don't think success can fill you up when you need love
I don't like the whores that try to fuck you for your game
I don't like my childhood
and do not need somebody else to blame
I already know you are dialed in too
This is the channel I'm dialed into
and I already know you are dialed in too
I already know you are dialed in too
I already know you are dialed in too
I don't like this band
I like what we're about
and not what you cannot understand
I don't like being paranoid
I don't like that I'm breeding again
but I accept all these cards I've been dealt
And do not need another motherfucking friend
I already know you are dialed in too
This is the channel I'm dialed into
and I already know you are dialed in too
I already know you are dialed in too
I already know you are dialed in too
who gives a fuck about who listens?
as long as I'm here,
as long as you know you can keep me here
for whenever you get lost
or you need an excuse to cover up your intentions
you hate that I express how I'm feeling
you hate that you relate to this shit
you hate that I'm a tic,
a motherfucking tic you're finding hard to forget!
I already know you are dialed in too
This is the channel I'm dialed into
and I already know you are dialed in too
I already know you are dialed in too
I already know you are dialed in too
Consumerism, television, and all that shit sucks big time. And fred found that out when he went up the social ladder and saw it all from a birds eye view.
kind of reminds me of rage against the machine
pretty obvious what this song is about........ Fred dislikes all the fucking corny ass metalcore/emo/screamo/pop-punk shit that everyone seems to bust a nut over nowadays, and he's just gonna keep it real and stay true to himself, not conforming to today's standards. right on, brother.
This is by far Bizkits best song. People can't appreciate the effort Limp Bizkit made with this EP. They didn't want to conform to musics/metals standards; already mentioned granted but they didn't wanna go down the same old route..Make Album that appeals to majority, Big advertising campaign, interviews, videos and all that bollocks. Fred was trying to right alot of wrongs he made with the band back in it's so called heyday & get back to hardcore music like Three Dollar Bill.
It was a great sign of how he had matured and how he wanted to change his & the bands image, the millions that hated him seemed more pissed off at this because they could see that he was making a effort and they didn't like it so instead of praising the criticized for the change in directioon, despite slagging that old direction off constantly.
This was destined to fail no matter what, but the people who bought and enjoyed this appreciate the effort and maturity it entailed & if Limp bring something out back like the Choccy Starfish days I'd be extremely pissed off!
a motherfucking tic you're finding hard to forget! Fucking psychosis love bullshit. All the songs from this album should be listened to. To understand a single one without knowing the other songs would be kind of impossible. if your not into this channel good for you, keep it that way.
fred stillll talking, not rapping, not singing about how bad the radio and tv is today..mostly bitching about shit which he was once a part of
good riffs, good beats, terrible vocals
fred give it up homie
The Reason Fred Made this song is because of people like you,...you criticize him for his vocals but when he made this album he didn't give a st about that he was telling the truth in these songs and people are to stupid to realize it but the song is about not making music to make some one else happy and to conform to corny ass fake music, music's about making something your proud of and not giving a fk about what other people think
