We live in a world
Were everything is stable.
My body is numb
Except for my eyeball.
It scans and finds
What is all of our Bible.
'Cos it keeps us happy
Using just one cable.
Television. Repeat x4

Surrender to its power.
Just watch yourself dissolve.
All we do is cower,
Otherwise we might evolve.
Best to just sit there
for another hour.
Never winning the lottery,
only getting sour.
'Cos it keeps us happy
using just one cable.
Television. Repeat x4

It is the best part of the day,
But you just waste away
and soon you will pay.
'Cos it keeps us happy
using just one cable.
Television. Repeat x4

It won't always be there
To hold your hand;
To protect you from a world
which may now seem bland.
And why do we do it?
It's 'cos we understand
That this one little cable
keeps us so happy.
Television. Repeat x4

We look outside
At a world in disarray
And then we look inside
And we know where to stay
Even if we do
Start to decay.
'Cos it keeps us happy
using just one cable.
Television. Repeat x4

Yes they keep us happy,
they're scared you might act,
And then they now
Who'd get hacked,
So they keep us happy
Using just one cable.
Television. Repeat x4

They keep us happy
using just one little cable.
Television. Repeat x7
