Farrell And Farrell - People In A Box lyrics

Artist: Farrell And Farrell

album: Jump To Conclusions


Well I rolled out of my bed
I was feeling semi-dead
So I wandered from my bedroom to the coffee
Then I woke up to the sound
Of little people all around
Relentless noises from that TV there beside me
And they told me what to wear
How to smell and do my hair
And how to charge the new car I'll be buying
I just sat and soaked it in
Aren't these people all my friends
It never dawned on me that they could all be lying
People in a box
TV personalities
They show me how to live
In specific generalities
People in a box
Out of bed
Tune em in
How much do I learn
From people in a box
Well I completely bought it all
Revolving credit wall to wall
Without a payment 'til September 89
Can I run
Can I escape
Are they alive or just on tape
The seem so worldly and so welcome to the eye
Heavy pressure from the start
TV madness stole our hearts
Black and white and vivid color turned to grey
Daytime soaps they're not clean
Nighttime cops blast through our screen
We're a Nielsen rating living on display
People in a box
TV personalities
They show me how to live
In specific generalities
People in a box
Out of bed
Tune 'em in
How much do I learn
From people in a box
Are these sultans of video activity
Truly the masters of my destiny
Was I created in the image of Trinitron
Can Jesus ever endorse mediocrity
While we consume hours of programmed philosophy
Will we ever learn
Off is as easy to turn as on
Heavy pressure from the start
TV madness stole our hearts
Black and white and vivid color turned to grey
Daytime soaps they're not clean
Nighttime cops blast through our screen
We're a Nielsen rating living on display
People in a box
TV personalities
They show me how to live
In specific generalities
People in a box
Out of bed
Tune 'em in
How much do I learn
From people in a box
TV personalities
They show me how to live
In specific generalities
People in a box
Out of bed
Tune 'em in
How much do I learn
From people in a box
TV personalities
Show me how to live
