Robert Ellis - TV Song Lyrics
I am not a failure, I played the hand that I was dealtBut every now and then I do pretend that I am someone elseIt takes no imagination, just a flick of the remoteThen I am on vacation in a life someone else wroteMaybe I'm a millionaire, I travel over the worldI'm handsome and respected, I get all those pretty girlsSo calm and mysterious, fighting for the greater goodPeople love and adore me from New York to HollywoodWell, this may not be the healthiest, I knowBut I'm happiest when I exist through my favorite TV showsI'm a gun fighter, I'm a bull riderI'm the captain of some pirate ship at seaFor a couple hours I got super powersOh my God, I love watching my TV, oh yeahOh my God, I love watching my TVOh, Betty Draper, I wish my wife was less like youIt gets so hard to take her, she complains the whole day throughAnd when I get home from working I just hate to hear her speakBut we do spend time together at least three nights a weekWe'll watch the one about the family with that great big ole houseOr the one with the detectives who always find the bad guys outOr the one about the lawyers who make sure that the right guy winsOr the couple that is still in love and needs never to pretendWell, no matter what is going on at homeI can always get a smile or two when my favorite show comes onI'm a gun fighter, I'm a bull riderI'm the captain of some pirate ship at seaFor a couple hours I got super powersOh my God, I love watching my TV, oh yeahOh my God, I love watching my TVGod bless you, Walt Disney, you were a father to meI used to fall asleep with the TV on at nightThrough my roughest days you put a smile on my young faceYou kept me company when no one else had timeI'm a gun fighter, I'm a bull riderI'm the captain of some pirate ship at seaFor a couple hours I got super powersOh my God, I love watching my TV, oh yeahOh my God, I love watching my TV
