Lee Scott – Watch TV Lyrics
Lyrics
Verse 1
- Opening scene, alone in the glow of the screen
- You awoke from your dream to breaking news
- For it seems you’ve misplaced the remote
- Don’t you want to be brain washed with a variation of soaps?
- Then just sit at home and never miss a moment?
- Got questions? Pause the action before you ask them
- Your fear levels are already topped up change the channel hurry
- You’d think the song was don’t be happy worry
- From philosophy and sacred geometry
- To watching the X-Factor and playing the Lottery
- While we neck spirits like they were dumber back then init?
- Please, they didn’t even have TV’s
- Look how advanced we are in our fancy car
- Shouting slogans at the telly standing at the bar
- You’re the funniest person your friends know
- Cause you repeat catchphrases from their favourite sketch show
Chorus X2
- Just people watching people watching a TV show
- Watching people watching the TV
- Watching people watching the TV
- And it was a hit but now we want it in 3D
Verse 2
- Get with the program, no I’d rather not
- Watch a spoilt rich kid gargle pop and boast about the cars they’ve got
- Debrained consumer, keep it shtum, obey your ruler
- And keep your eyes on the screen when reaching for the ice cooler
- Cause how you going to know what to buy if it isn’t advertised to ye’?
- What’s the latest ‘Real House Wives’ rumour?
- What is life? Ignore that benign tumour
- And keep yourself distracted with plastic tits
- And talentless blonde haired blue eyes savages
- With overpriced veneers and overhyped careers
- You wish you could close your eyes and ears
- But when you’re free from the grasp of the TV
- There’s nothing to say unless you watched the shit yesterdee
- The show goes on forever fuck an ending
- Come home from work, get comfy and plug yourself in
Chorus
- Just people watching people watching a TV show
- Watching people watching the TV
- Watching people watching the TV
- And it was a hit but now we want it in 3D
- Everybody’s watching it, it’s the show they’re all talking about
- So what you talking about eh? If you’re not talking about it
- What you talking about? Tit!
