TV Tan

I'm livin' on a landmine

My body's tickin' 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 lyin' 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

(And now) I see no sun

I see no light behind my one-track mind

(Here I) I need no fun

I need no time to find a new design

Move along, I'm workin' on my 3D TV tan

(So-so KO) I need another show

(So-so KO) It's just a part of the plan

(So-so KO) There's only me and my TV tan

Someday maybe I'll call you

I'll see whenever I'm free

Maybe Tuesday when there's nothing on TV

Twenty Regal and a four-pack

I guess I'm set for the night

And antisocial to keep in shape, thin and white

I like to smoke and in 'tween tokes, consult the TV guide

The bible for the pig who stays inside

(And now) I see no sun

I see no light behind my one-track mind

(Here I) I need no fun

I need no time to find a new design

Move along, I'm workin' on my 3D TV tan

(So-so KO) I need another show

(So-so KO) It's just a part of the plan

(So-so KO) There's only me and my TV tan

TV tan

Thinnin', I'm thinnin' and insanely grinning

At fools peering out of my TV, trying hard to be funny

Unfortunate for me, they start to entertain me

I'm livin' on a landmine

The kind that never ignites

And I'm here waiting, here for nothing

(And now) I see no sun

I see no light behind my one-track mind

(Here I) I need no fun

I need no time to find a new design

Move along, I'm workin' on my 3D TV tan

(So-so KO) I need another show

(So-so KO) It's just a part of the plan

(So-so KO) There's only me and my TV tan
