I Saw It On T.V.

歌詞

They sent us home to watch the show comming on the little screen A man named Ike was in the white house big black limosine There were many shows that followed from hooter to dootyville Though I saw them all I can't recall which cartoon were real The coons skin caps Yankee bats the hound dog mans big start The A bomb fears Annette had ears I lusted in my heart A young man from Boston said "sail the new frontier" And we watched the dream dead end in Dallas They buried innocents that year Chorus: I know it's true oh so true cause I saw it on T.V. We gathered round to hear the sound comming on the little screen The grief had passed the old men laughed and all the girls screamed Cause four guys from England tooks all by the hands It was time to laugh time to sing time to join the band But all too soo we hit the moon and covered up the sky They built the bombs and aimed their guns and still i don't know why The dominoes tumbled and big buisness roared Every night at six they showed the pictures and counted up the score Chorus: I know it's true oh so true cause I saw it on T.V. The Old man rocks among his dreams a prisoner of the porch The light he said at the end of the tunnel Was nothing but a burglars torch And them that was caught in the cover are all rich and free But they chained my mind to an endless tune When they took my only son from me Chorus: I know it's true oh so true cause I saw it on T.V. I know it's true oh so true cause I saw it on T.V.
