lyrics

LEAVE YOUR T.V. WHERE IT STANDS
-------------------------------

THEY SAY
ANYTHING THAT COULD MAKE US STAY.
THEY SHOW
WHAT WE ALL WANT TO KNOW.
STAY TUNED
UNTIL YOU'RE READY TO CONSUME

THE SAME OLD STORIES
WHEN THE URGE BECOMES A NEED
IT GETS REAL ON MY SCREEN.

THEY FAKE
REAL EVENTS FOR A PASIVE CROWD.
CREATE
SUSPENCE FROM SENSELESS LIFES.
THEY SPREAD
LONGER COMMERCIAL BREAKS AND ADS.

THE SAME OLD STORIES
KEEPIN' THE SECRETS ALIVE
REVEALED ON MY SCREEN.
SAME OLD STORIES
'BOUT AN AUDIENCE RATING RISE
GET REAL ON MY SCREEN.

SHOOT YOUR T.V. DOWN
AND GO OUT TO GIGS.
SAVE YOUR MONEY FOR THE BANDS
AND WE WILL SHOW YOU WHAT THE REAL LIFE IS.
MOVE ON, REACT,
THROW YOUR T.V. OUT.
SAVE A DAY FROM THE ROUTINE
BY COMIN' TELL US WHAT YOU'RE RHYMING WITH.

THEY SAY
TO GET IN IS THE ONLY WAY
TO WIN
A BIG PART IN THEIR PLAY.
YOUR DREAM
WILL COME TRUE
IF YOU WATCH AND PAY.

THE SAME OLD STORIES
ARTISTS OR CELEBRITIES
CONFUSE ON MY SCREEN.
SAME OLD STORIES
AMBITIOUS OR TALENTED
LOOSE SENSE ON MY SCREEN.
MOVE ON, COME OUT,
THERE'S NO POINT IN BEING STARS.
THEY'RE LIGHTS ON MY SCREEN.
MOVE ON, COME OUT,
TAKE IMAGINATIONS BACK
BY BREAKIN' THE SCREEN.
