Tiptoe out into the silence of the evening
Looking through your windows I can't believe what I'm seeing
I realise its effect
And I'm as guilty as the next
But I wish I could leave it
I've been drained like all the rest
Must it come into our nest?
Are we too weak to just leave it?
Is it all so bad that the TV's always on?
All the talk shows and the game shows and the documentaries
Sycophants and egotists sharing with us their life stories
I realise its effect
And I'm as guilty as the next
But I wish I could leave it
I've been drained like all the rest
Must it come into our nest?
Are we too weak to just leave it?
Is it all so bad that the TV's always on?
Is it all so bad that the TV's always on?
Feel its pull taking over your lives
Information pours out
Fills a million little eyes
Feel its pull taking over your lives
Information pours out
Fills a million little eyes...with lies
(solo)
Is it all so bad that the TV's always on?
Is it all so bad that the TV's always on?
If the need goes you will be alright
Make a fresh start to another life
And the faces you know and love will fade and die
Turn it off, turn it off
Turn it off it's easy
You gotta lead the way to a better day
You gotta lead the way to a better day.....yeah!
