I'm living on a land-mine
|
my body's ticking away, my cartoon eyelids
|
and my skin, a sickly grey
|
and if I waited by the 'phone line
|
I'd wait a couple of days so I'm here lying
|
on my bed, until I fade
|
|
I flick the channels one to one, I flick them through again
|
and all the time I'm dreaming better days
|
|
CHORUS:
|
and now I see no sun, I see no life behind my one-track mind
|
here I need no fun, I need no time to find a new design
|
move along I'm working on my 3-D TV tan
|
softso KO - I need another show
|
softso KO - it's just a part of the plan
|
softso KO - there's only me and my TV Tan
|
|
|
some day maybe I'll call you
|
I'll see whenever I'm free.. maybe Tuesday, when there's nothing on TV
|
20 Regal and a 4-pack
|
I guess I'm set for the night and anti-social, to keep in shape, thin and white
|
|
I light a smoke, and in'tween tokes, consult the TV guide
|
the bible for the pig who stays inside
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
thinning, I'm thinning and insanely grinning
|
and fools peering
|
out of my TV try hard to be funny
|
unfortunate for me
|
they start to entertain ye
|
|
I'm living on a land-mine, the kind that never ignites
|
and I'm here waiting, here for nothing...
|
|
CHORUS
