"The TV Made Me Do It" lyrics

"The TV Made Me Do It"

The newspaper's gonna lose it
The TV's talking too slick
Truth just seems inconvenient
Words are changing their meaning
Makes more sense than believing
I'm just losing my reason

What's the point in saving your soul
If no one ever dies?
What's the matter with taking control
Of someone else's life?
All your moments are bought and sold
He always was an angel
The TV made him do it
The TV made me do it

The news station's gone hard left
The government made em do it
Computer waves got my mind's eye
Radio impulses every night
Makes more sense than believing
I've just gone off the deep end

What's the point in saving your soul
If no one ever dies?
What's the matter with taking control
Of someone else's life?
All your moments are bought and sold
He always was an angel
The TV made him do it
The TV made you do it

The TV made me do it
The TV made me do it
Oh, yeah
Whoo...

Showed up early at the capitol
Bright and early with a gun pulled
We were following orders by the president and his owners
Wore the mask of a movement
The TV made us do it

What's the point in saving your soul
If no one ever dies?
What's the matter with taking control
Of someone else's life?
All your moments are bought and sold
He always was an angel
The TV made him do it

What's the point in selling your soul
When no one's gonna buy it?
What's the matter with taking a toll
If it ain't us who pays it?
All your moments are bought and sold
If we're made in God's image
The devil made him do it

The TV made me do it
