Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Well I rolled out of my bed I was feeling semi-dead so I wandered from the bedroom to the coffee Then I woke up to the sound of little people all around and it was noises from that TV there beside me And they told me what to wear how to smell and do my hair and how to charge a new car I'll be buying I just sat and soaked it in are these people all my friends? never dawned on us that they could all be lying... (Chorus) People in a box T.V. personalities They show me how to live In specific generalities People in a box Out of bed tune 'em in How much do I learn from people in a box? Well I completely bought it all revolving credit wall to wall without a payment to September '89 Can I run? Can I escape? Are they alive, or just on tape? They seem so worldly and so welcome to the eye Heavy pressure from the start T.V. madness filled our heart Black and White, and living color turned to gray. Daytime soaps - they're not clean Nighttime cops blast through our screen We're a Nielson Rating living on display. --Repeat Chorus-- (spoken verse) Are these sultans of video activity truly the masters of my destiny? Was I created in the image of Trinitron? Can Jesus ever endorse mediocrity while we consume hours of program philosopy? Will we ever learn that off is as easy to turn, as on? Heavy pressure from the start T.V. madness filled our heart Black and White, and living color turned to gray. Daytime soaps - they're not clean Nighttime cops blast through our screen We're a Nielson Rating living on display. --Repeat Chorus and fade--
