Television, Television |
Look at the hottie in the tight jeans, |
look at the pipe dreams, |
look at the fat man burst at the seams. |
Look at the captain with the galaxy right off his balcony. |
Look at the science and the alchemy. |
Look at the sirens on the cop cars, |
look at the pop stars, |
look at the convicts filing the bars. |
Look at the wife, |
look at the knife, |
look at the pom-pom prom queen |
scream and scream and run for her life. |
It’s always right, |
the perfect light in the dark of night. |
Give up the world, |
give up your life, |
'cause you cannot fight the television. |
Television, television. |
Look at them trying to get the flag higher, |
look at the quagmire, |
look at the tread separate from the tire. |
Look at the junky trying to get a gram, |
look at the betting man, |
look at him folding on the better hand. |
It’s always right, |
the fearless light in the dark of night. |
Give up the world, |
give up your life, |
'cause you cannot fight the television. |
Television, television. |
Look at me hypnotized and half alive, |
maybe it’s four or five, |
some parts are sleeping, |
some parts are paralyzed. |
Just one more minute… |
just one more minute… |
I think I’m almost in it. |
Television, television. |
Give me tits and politicians. |
Give me death and demolition. |
Give me glamour and sedition. |
Television. |
