Television, Television Songtext / Lyric

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

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 a 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

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

Television, television



Give me tits and politicians (Television, television)

Give me death and demolition (Television, television)

Give me glamour and sedition (Television, television)

Television!
