Joe Jackson - T.V. Age Lyrics

Here we stand
Remote control buttons in our sweaty little hands
As one man
We're lining up and waiting for someone's command

We don't move
We sent out for food, get the news on video
I can prove
There's no need for movies, we got HBO
In the T.V. Age

(They're out there somewhere)
You know the force has got a lot of power
But what makes you think it gives a shit about you
Who are you anyway?
(They're taking over)
And I believe the aliens have to take a physical form
On our planet, - so why not one with 13 channels
(They're out there somewhere)

Times must change
This ain't the stone age, we don't have rocks in our heads
What's so strange?
We don't work no more, so why get out of bed

T.V. rules
Pretty soon you won't be able to turn it off at all
All you fools
Then it'll turn you off - your back's against the wall
In the T.V. Age
