Television

I saw the news on my TV today
There was a man who was a king yesterday
He had it all, they had nothing to eat
He didn't bother about the blood on his feet

I saw this man everybody wanna kill
I felt the anger from his people, I was chilled
They put him down, they were hungry and sad
Had him for dinner, 'cause they were so damn mad

That's quite a story, but I saw it today
(I saw it today)
But then I switch the channel to get away

I live my life through television
I even love the intermissions
Come on, come on
See the world through the screen, then I'm gone

I met the stars from the movies last week
They said hello, but I just couldn't speak
I felt so jealous, they glittered like gold
So I turned them grey with my remote control

There was a time, an afternoon
I saw the man walking on the moon
I don't believe that I've travelled so far
But I was there driving in my car

That's quite a story, but you've gotta believe
(Gotta believe)
I switch the channels, then I'm ready to leave

I live my life through television
I have my own imagination
What's right, what's wrong
And I know that I won't be alone

I live my life through television
I even love the intermissions
Come on, come on
See the world through the screen, then I'm gone
And I know that I won't be alone

I live my life through television
I even love the intermissions

I live my life through television
I have my own imagination
What's right, what's wrong
And I know that I won't be alone

I live my life through television
I even love the intermissions
Come on, come on
See the world through the screen then I'm gone

Television
(I live my life through television)
Intermission
(I even love the intermissions)
Television
(See the world through the screen, then I'm gone)

(I live my life through television)
(I even love the intermissions)
Come on, come on
See the world through the screen, then I'm gone

(I live my life through television)
(I even love the intermissions)
Come on, come on
See the world through the screen, then I'm gone
