Just one more minute, just one more minute
Look at the pom-pom, prom queen
The, television, television
Look at the quagmire
Right off his balcony
Give up the world, give up your life
Look at him folding on a better hand
Look at the tread separate from the tire
Look at the junky trying to get a gram
'Cause you cannot fight the television
I think I'm almost in it
Look at me hypnotized and half alive
The perfect light in the dark of night
(Television, television)
Maybe it's four or five
Oh, it's always right
Look at the wife, look at the knife
Look at the science and the alchemy
The television, television
Some parts are paralyzed
(The, television, television)
The, television, television
Look at the convicts filing the bars
Look at the betting man
The fearless light in the dark of night
Look at them trying to get the flag higher
Look at the captain with the galaxy
Give me tits and politicians
'Cause you cannot fight the television
The television
The television
Look at the pop stars
Give me glamor and sedition
Scream and scream and run for her life
(The, television, television)
Give up the world, give up your life
Look at the fat man burst at the seams
Look at the sirens on the cop cars
And it's always right
The television, television
Some parts are sleeping
Give me death and demolition
