[Verse 1]
The black wind blows like you've never seen
And your TV screen is filled with snow
And the naked truth has an unmarked grave
Between the waves on your radio
And war is peace and peace is war
And less is more and yes is no
They wanna tell you this, they wanna tell you that
Just hold your hat when the black wind blows

[Chorus]
Everywhere I go I hear what's going on
And the more I hear the less I know
Everywhere I go I hear what's going on
And the more I hear the less I know

[Verse 2]
And they're all tripped out on the ship of state
They're running late for the breakfast show
And God likes guns, doves are hawks
And Jesus walks in Idaho
And the food we buy won't go bad
But the cows are mad and the chickens glow
They wanna tell you this, they wanna sell you that
Just hold your hat when the black wind blows
[Chorus]
Everywhere I go I hear what's going on
And the more I hear the less I know
Everywhere I go I hear what's going on
And the more I hear the less I know

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Everywhere I go
I hear what's going on
And the more I hear
The less I know
Everywhere I go (War is peace and peace is war)
I hear what's going on (Less is more and yes is no)
And the more I hear (The cows are mad, the chickens glow)
The less I know (Jesus walks in Idaho)
Everywhere I go (War is peace and peace is war)
I hear what's going on (Less is more and yes is no)
And the more I hear (The cows are mad, the chickens glow)
The less I know (Jesus walks in Idaho)
Everywhere I go (War is peace and peace is war)
I hear what's going on (Less is more and yes is no)
And the more I hear (The cows are mad, the chickens glow)
The less I know (Jesus walks in Idaho)
