TV Songtext

von The Tubes

I wish I was the man with the mechanical heart
I'd conquer all my enemies alone
I'd tear the guys apart then scatter the pieces
I wish I was the man in the soundproof booth

I wish I had a chance to stump the band
Or maybe tell truth
And maybe I could win a color television
I really love my television
I love to sit by television

Can't live without my television
TV is king, you're my everything
I wish I had the girl with the bouncy hair
We'd ride off in a brand new car
Or fly a plane somewhere like probably Jamaica

I brush my teeth, shampoo my hair, and shave my face
Apply the necessary aerosol in the appropriate place
And we'll spend the night together watching television
I can't turn off my television
Don't really know why television
I understand my television

You got your works in a drawer and your colors on track
You have to break away but you always come back
You make a hundred changes but you're always the same
You make me so excited and you make me so lame

You're just a tube full of gas and a box full of tin
But you show me your charms and I want to jump in
Oh if only your chassis was covered with skin
'Cause TV you're my everything
I really love my television
I love to sit by television

Can't live without my television, I can't turn off my television
Don't really know why television
I understand my television, I really love my television
TV is king, you're my everything, TV is king
