T.V. Age
Joe Jackson
Here we stand - (remote control buttons in our sweaty little hands) As one man - (we're lining up and waiting for someone's command) We don't move - (we sent out for food, get the news on video) I can prove - (there's no need for movies, we got HBO) In the T.V. Age They're out there somewhere (you know the force has got a lot of power - but what makes you think it gives a shit about you . . . who are you anyway?) They're taking over (and I believe - the aliens have to take a physical form on our planet - so why not one with 13 channels . . .) They're out there somewhere Times must change (this ain't the stone age, we don't have rocks in our heads) What's so strange - (we don't work no more, so why get out of bed) T.V. rules - (pretty soon you won't be able to turn it off at all) All you fools - (then it'll turn you off - your back's against the wall) In the - T.V. Age80s indie new wave Pop/Rock wishes it were talking heads
