T.V. Age — текст песни (Joe Jackson)

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
