Well, the latest craze going around Is called the video cassette recorder And I was the first one in my town To send off my money order Well, I thought that thing Would never get here But old UPS came through I ripped the box apart and bless their hearts They sent a free movie too Well I hooked it up once and I hooked it up twice And eight or nine more times I had it all wrong But I finally got it right Just play, stop, rewind I grabbed the movie they sent and I shoved it right in It was called The X-Rated Reviews Now, I seen movies where folks kiss But I never seen nothing like this Oh Lord, I got the video blues Well, I drove downtown to join the tape club And friends, I've got some news Most all the movies they had down there Was just like they one they sent me too I bought Star Wars, Jaws, Poltergeist Superman 1 and 2 when they added it up I'd spent three hundred bucks I got the video blues I got the video blues, don't know what to do This could get expensive I want a camera to zoom, remote control too So I can make documentaries Now they're trying to pass laws About copyrights and all And taping things off of the tube I'd probably be better off if They'd haul this thing off 'Cause I've got the video blues Well, I called my girl to come on over 'Cause I had new movies to show I started her off with Smokey and the Bandit I thought I'd kind of take it slow But later that night when the time was right I showed one called Swedish Ways She said, "Well, I've never In my life, well, i guess it's alright Hey yeah, go on, let it play I got the video blues, what have I got into? This thing has taken my place She don't wanna hug or make any love She just sit's there with that Funny look on her face i came on too strong I shoulda known all along What I was getting into She won't give me a kiss 'cause she's afraid she'll miss Something from the Movies Review I've got the video blues Don't know what to do And this could get expensive I want a camera to zoom, remote control too So I can make home documentaries Now they're trying to pass laws About copyrights and all And taping things off of the tube I'd probably be better off if They'd haul this thing off 'Cause I got the video blues I'd be so much better off if They'd haul this stuff off 'Cause I got the video blues Hey baby, it's me i'm still here Hey, look at me!
