Album: Electric Eye
I got static on my brainwaves
Set the frequency to stereo sound
Air antenna working overtime
And the volume won't turn down
I read my life in the funny papers
But I'm buried on page thirteen
Know what I mean?
Radio, stereo, video, it's all just electric eyes
Radio, stereo, video, it's all just electric eyes
I got my good times from a laugh track
I got my news from professional smiles
I got religion on the cable
I got my name on the microfiles
I don't even have to leave my lounge chair
I change my channels by remote control
Oh no
Radio, stereo, video, it's all just electric eyes
ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS
All I know is what I read in the papers
All I know is what I see on the TV
All I know is what I hear in the headphones
I wanna know what's right for me, I can't see it
I read the truth as Newsweek sees it
I've got some culture on my VCR
I see the world through an F-stop window
I stroll my Walkman down the boulevard
I let the airwaves soothe my senses
I hear the man with the FM voice
Have I got a choice?
Radio, stereo, video, it's all just electric eyes
Radio, stereo, video, it's all just electric eyes
