The song "T.V. Suicide" by Hawkwind is a commentary on our society's obsession with television and consumerism. The lyrics describe the way in which people spend their lives glued to their TV screens, bombarded by advertisements and hard-selling tactics. The line "Everything I need is on my TV" highlights the idea that we have become so reliant on television that we no longer seek out experiences or information in the real world. The song also addresses the way in which television can be a form of mind control, with viewers becoming passive and unaware of their surroundings. The line "Whose got your soul?" suggests that our addiction to television has left us spiritually empty and disconnected from our true selves. The title "T.V. Suicide" implies that our addiction to television is a slow death, as we allow it to control our thoughts and actions. The chorus encourages us to resist the temptation of hard-selling tactics and to take control of our own lives.
