Lyric Cartoon World

(Eric Carmen/John Wesley Harding)

I like the colors
I like the way they move
They re all so brilliantly realized
They just could not be improved

I love the way the sex is so overt
I love the way the violence doesn t hurt

It s a cartoon world
It s exactly as it seems
And it s bigger than life
And better than all your dreams

It s a cartoon world
It s a safer place to be
And it s better than real
A perfect facsimile
It s a cartoon world

I like the things their saying
I like the way they re said
I like to change the channels
While I m lying in my bed

From the commercial to the anchorman
They ve done research on my attention span

It s a cartoon world
It s exactly as it seems
And it s smaller than life
And better than all your dreams

It s a cartoon world
It s a safer place to be
And it s better than real
And bigger than you and me

And the stars are brighter
They ve got more charisma
And more style than you and me

I watch the news on TV
It doesn t mean a thing to me
What s a little ethnic cleansing?
That s the way it s always been

I was excited when the war began
Now I ve got Gameboy, I m a happy man

It s a cartoon world
It s exactly as it seems
And it s bigger than life
And better than all your dreams

It s a cartoon world
It s a safer place to be
And it s better than real
A perfect facsimile
It s a cartoon world

It s a cartoon world
It s a cartoon world

It s a cartoon world
It s a cartoon world

It s a cartoon world
