I wrote this song this song as a satire of the so called music network. I think it's dumb that MTV calls themselves a music network when the hardly play any music at all.

It's sad because MTV used to be coolest think if you where a music fan. Now it's just a bunch of dumb reality shows.

The title is a play on the old 60's expressions "Peave, Love" & "Don't trust anyone over 30". Back then, anyone over 30 was considered "the man" or "the establishment". That's what I feel MTV has become.

PEACE LOVE AND DON'T TRUST MTV
YOU AIN'T NO MUSIC NETWORK BABY - AS FAR AS I CAN SEE

PEACE LOVE AND DON'T TRUST MTV
USED TO BE ABOUT THE MUSIC - NOW IT'S ALL JUST MOCKERY

CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT THE M STANDS FOR? - OH NO
YOU USED TO ROCK BUT NOW YOU SUCK
DON'T YOU TRY TO PASS THE BUCK - OH NO

PEACE LOVE AND DON'T TRUST MTV
THE ANTI MUSIC NETWORK - YOU AIN'T NO FRIEND TO ME

PEACE LOVE AND DON'T TRUST MTV
YOU'VE GOTTEN OLD IT'S TIME TO GO
LIKE THE VCR COMBO TV

I DON'T CARE WHERE ANYONE CRIBS
WHAT THEY BUY OR WEAR IT DON'T MEAN !#*!
I WANT SMOKIN' ROCK'N'ROLL
LOVIN' POP AND GROOVIN' SOUL - OH YEAH

YOU USED TO ROCK BUT NOW YOU SUCK
DON'T YOU TRY TO PASS THE BUCK - OH NO
I WANT SMOKIN' ROCK'N'ROLL
LOVIN' POP AND GROOVIN' SOUL - OH YEAH

(Spoken) ...Yeah man MTV. Once upon a time that was the reason you bought cable. Does anyone know what happened? Does anyone know what the M stands for nowadays....I dunno......You know, other networks have their game shows, their reality shows...but they don't try and call it a music network...Think about it

PEACE LOVE AND DON'T TRUST MTV
IT'S NOT TO LATE FOR YOU TO GROW
REDEMPTION IS JUST DOWN THE ROAD

TRY TO REPRESENT THE NATION
WE'RE ALL ONE MUSIC GENERATION

Preacher: ladies and gentleman...I am here to tell you today that we are all one music generation. And we will not be bound by any age, race, or genre. We are not a rock and pop generation, we are not a blues or hip hop generation...We are all one music generation and we will not have our tastes dictated to us by any corporate entity. Now let me hear you sing it!
