Telecide

Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Listen, boys and girls About the other world It's just a day job, night job Odd job, nose job Hand job, blow job Rack job, snow job Boring 9-to-5 job Rather have a knob job Things get too inertial No time for commercials [Verse 2] I'd rather be a clone I guess I'm going home To visit Kojak, Gong Show Happy Days, Adam-12 Edge Of Night, Love Of Life Johnny Carson, Merv and Mike Good Times, Make A Deal Charlie's Angels, Family Feud Feeling so much thinner I need a TV dinner [Pre-Chorus] I'm mad as hell And I'm not gonna take it anymore! [Chorus] (TV suicide) TV suicide (TV suicide) TV suicide What a lovely way to die It's a television suicide [Verse 3] Please stand by We're coming to you live 'Cause we got news, hot news Flash news, trash news Funny news, stupid news Comprehensive overviews Eyewitness TV news Brought to you by Gucci shoes This one is so juicy We're pre-empting Lucy [Verse 4] Coming down the street The sound of running feet He's at the front door, back door Side door, cellar door First floor, second floor Third floor, bedroom door Throws himself across the floor Turns it on to Channel 4 Stay tuned to this channel For our all-star panel [Pre-Chorus] (I used to know him) (He seemed like a regular guy) [Chorus] (TV suicide) TV suicide (TV suicide) TV suicide What a lovely way to die It's another case of telecide [Chorus] (TV suicide) TV suicide (TV suicide) TV suicide What a lovely way to die It's a television suicide [Instrumental Bridge 1] [Instrumental Bridge 2] [Instrumental Bridge 3] [Chorus] TV suicide, TV suicide (TV suicide) TV suicide (TV suicide) TV suicide (What a lovely way to die) TV suicide (It's a) Television suicide [Instrumental Outro]
