TV AND MY BABY


When you have doubts about it, know we can't live without it
Star trek's important but it's not as fun as you
I love the Bundy's and the crazy things the Simpson's do
But deep down inside I know that far and wide, they're not as fun as you

Television and my Baby go together so right
Just like telescopes and children on a starry night
The way that Hawkeye makes me laugh when I feel cold it's so right
It's forever

Just take the man and his game, they become one and the same
Football's important but it's not as fun as you
They love the music and the money made off Michael too,
But deep down inside I know that far and wide, it's not as fun as you

Tabloid T.V. and my Baby go together so right
Just like atom bombs and Nevada on a cold October night
The way old movies make me cry when I'm alone I can't fight
It's forever

You and my remote control, are the best friends that I know
Roseanne's important but it's not fun without you
The Kids in the Hall and Almost Live portray the things I wanna do
But deep down inside I know that far and wide, it's not fun without you

Television and my Baby go together so right
Just like Spiderman and Venom on a darkened winter's night
The way The Scarecrow makes us live the things we fear it's so right
It's forever
(forever is now)
