Turn On The TV Songtext / Lyric

(Roger Taylor)



Collect your senses and your wits

What you've left of your mind

All the so called modern caring virtues

Are the moral teaching you can find

So let's turn on the TV






Get a few more debts and you must?

Turn on the TV as it takes a horizontal hold on all your energy

Just gotta get gotta get gotta go gotta get up outta here

Just gotta get gotta get gotta go gotta get up outta here

We go to the place over the hill

Where the grass is greener

Where the life is sweeter

But all the time we know

That it never is (that it never is that it never is that it never is)

And it's very likely

That we never will

Found myself talking to one of those quadraphonic pioneers

He said give up that stereo

Boy I said I've only got two ears

Things ain't so black and white

When grey is the colour of my best(? girl)friends hair(? sweater)

Turn on the TV and create some greyness circulating in the air

Just gotta get gotta get gotta go gotta get up outta here

Just gotta get gotta get gotta go gotta get up outta here



We go to the place over the hill

Where the grass is greener

Where the life is sweeter

But all the time we know

That it never is (that it never is that it never is that it never is)

And it's very likely

That we never will
