TV killed me In league with the boredom Alone and my life was such a mess I'm throwing the towel in Picking my hat up from the ring that I just can't compete in 'Cause TV killed me You're so perfect So perfectly vacant You shame me with your worrying and scurrying Your plans seem so senseless One out, violenceless Join me if you're brave, come to my grave 'Cause TV killed me I want your warm sedation around my brain And with your nation's anthem We'll fade away into static ashes Now that I'm wired The cable's expired You hurt me with your promises of promises But TV killed me
