jake shears - do the television lyrics
[intro]
all my children, can you keep up with us?
do the television
all my children, keep up living in love
do the television
[verse 1]
what’s that word worth remembering for?
i saw it written in scratches on a bathroom door
i tried to learn the television, get the accents right
but the voices in my head made me sleep all night
[pre+chorus]
and the words that we said
we’re the ones that had led generations
but you wake up to find that the meaning has gone
and i’m feeling alright to swim in such sweet indecision
[chorus]
all my children, can you keep up with us?
do thе television
all my children, can you keep up with us?
do thе television
[verse 2]
calling all women and calling all men
and the people in the middle stand up and bend
forest your grind, your t++th and you spread your legs
it’s how the crippled boy boogies and the broke man begs
[pre+chorus]
and the words that we made
like a picture that’s faded in daylight
but you wake up to find
that the language has gone
and i’m feeling alright
this rejection of old tradition
[chorus]
all my children, can you keep up with us?
do the television
all my children, can you keep up with us?
do the television
[bridge]
there are movements, but these are commitments
are my hands onto my hands when we’re done?
i was dreaming the last time i felt this
there is nothing yet something for everyone
[outro]
all my children, can you keep up with us?
do the television
all my children, can you keep up with us?
do the television
all my children (can you keep up with us?)
do the television
all my children, can you keep up with us?
do the television
all my children, can you keep up with us?
do the television
