What You Don't Know Lyrics - John Farnham

John Farnham, Phil Buckle, and Ross Fraser 

Manufacture of consent 

Turn your fiction into fact 

The story's more important than the truth 

Selective information sold 

Won't tell us what we should know 

The printed word is set with biased hands 

There it is in black and white 

What you can't see, and don't hear 

What you don't know hurts you 

What is not said, but instead 

What you don't know hurts you

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

And war look like a TV game 

Entertaining frame by frame 

But do we ever really know the score 

Cover up and change the view 

Suggest the side that we should choose 

On the air, your own official truth 

There it is on satellite 

What you can't see, and don't hear 

What you don't know hurts you 

What is not said, but instead 

What you don't know hurts you 

What you're not told, but are sold 

What you don't know hurts you 

What is not shown, won't be known 

What you don't know hurts you 

What you see, what you hear 

What you read 

What you don't know hurts

9 Misheard Christmas Carol Lyrics 

The safety of complacency 

Imagination, scarcity 

The camera is asleep on my TV 

Opinions formed from what I'm fed 

From subtitles that I've read 

I read the words 

But not between the lines 

I heard it on the air tonight 

What you can't see, and don't hear 

What you don't know hurts you 

What is not said, but instead 

What you don't know hurts you 

What you can't see, and don't hear 

What you don't know hurts you 

What is not said, but instead 

What you don't know hurts you
