Lyrics
I remember the day we got the big brown box
it had a walnut finish with a gold grille cloth
everyone watched 'til they were nearly blind
and it stole our hearts as it was stealing our minds
Cronkite and Kennedy, Pepsodent, Brylcreem and beer
Saturday morning cartoons, our attention never veered
until the white dot disappeared
Well you could say things have only gotten worse since then
we get the six o'clock news reports from Barbie and Ken
and the pull-string pundits each and every night
try to keep us divided on the left and the right
People reduced to consumers are fading to black
and every moment you watch is one you won't get back
it's time to throw the tv out the window
No interaction it's just a distraction, a way to control all mankind
come on, you bobblehead, wake up and take back your mind
it's time to throw the tv out
it's time to throw the tv out the window
