I can't deny it all my life
It's the token of my life
Something you would try
For the best in the obscene
Just look on the TV screen
To pass away the while

It doesn't matter if you're
Red, black or in the sack
I've got my grip, I've got a hold
Nothing ties one down
Like prime time in Hi-Fi
But now it's getting old

People stop and stare
Here, there and everywhere
They've got the blueprints for life
They keep pretending
The world is ending
You'll be fictionized

So stop the human drive
The fierce power switching
On the ripe adolescent light
Terminates in five

The people standing in the lines
Have seen the film a million times
With a pocket full of dimes
So unless it is for free
You'll spin the country on it's side
To be intensified

People stop and stare
Here, there and everywhere
They've got the blueprints for life
They keep pretending
The world is ending
You'll be fictionized

It's on this TV, it's on that TV
It's on your TV, it's on my TV
It's on his TV, it's on her TV
It's on this TV, it's on your TV screen

You'll keep pretending
That the world is ending
You'll be fictionized
