Lyric TV is King
(Rundgren/Spooner/Steen/Prince/Welnick/Cotten/Anderson/Waybill/Styles)
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 color s 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
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
