chumbawamba - telly lyrics
Loading...
man found dead in his armchair
sitting next to wife transfixed and knitting
channel stays unchanged
they dumbly watch, don’t make a sound
they’re force+fed sh+t
from breakfast+time
to the closedown
t.v. tells them what to be
and what to say and what to do
how to act and how to lie
but never question; why
and they’re always switched up
(sample plays)
the man in the streets has become the man in the sitting room
wife says
“time for winner takes all
i wish we had remote control”
man can’t hear and goes unheard
as she knits through his final words:
if you want to turn me on
turn the television off
if you want to turn me on
turn the television off
if you want to turn me on
