I can't deny it all my life
  It's the token of my life
  Something you would try
    For the best in the obscene
  Just look on the tv screen
  To pass away the while
    It doesnt matter if you're
  Red, black, or in the sack
  I've got my grip, I've got a hold
    Nothing ties one down like prime time in Hi-Fi
  But now its getting old
    People stop and stare
  Here, there, and everywhere
  They've got the blueprints for life
    They keep pretending
  The world is ending
  You'll be fictionized
    So stop the human drive
  The fierce power switching on the
  Ripe adolescent light
  Terminates in five
    The people standing in the lines
  Have seen the film a million times
  With a pocket full of dimes
    So unless it is for free
  You'll spin the country on its side
  To be intensified
    People stop and stare
  Here, there, and everywhere
  They've got the blueprints for life
    They keep pretending
  The world is ending
  You'll be fictionized
    It's on this tv
  It's on that tv
  It's on your tv
  It's on my tv
  It's on his tv
  It's on her tv
  It's on this tv
  It's on your tv screen
    You'll keep pretending
  That the world is ending...
  You'll be fictionized
