Television Lyrics
television, television, television, television
oh yeah! I want to bask in your golden light,
submerge in electric waves,
I need my connection to the world outside
the world outside is buzzing like an angry wasp in summer,
the candidates are running, and soon the son of God is coming,
crackle mental convolutions tune in to the revolution,
whereby everyone's included so we'll never have to be alone
every atom of my body, blood and sinew, bone and fibre,
I can't distil you from my blood,
you're a hungry germ inside of me,
you're my lover, you're my heroine,
my conscience and my voice,
and I know that I have learned to let you in I
will lever have to be alone
I'd take after my mother but she's from a different generation,
I prefer my big brother he's so gentle and understanding,
and I learn what I can from him by the television light,
so that when I'm all alone I know everything's gonna be alright
submerge in electric waves,
I need my connection to the world outside
the candidates are running, and soon the son of God is coming,
crackle mental convolutions tune in to the revolution,
whereby everyone's included so we'll never have to be alone
I can't distil you from my blood,
you're a hungry germ inside of me,
you're my lover, you're my heroine,
my conscience and my voice,
and I know that I have learned to let you in I
will lever have to be alone
I prefer my big brother he's so gentle and understanding,
and I learn what I can from him by the television light,
so that when I'm all alone I know everything's gonna be alright

Anyone else find it ironic that as we comment on our generation's technological dependence, we're sitting here in front of our computer screens typing comments into songmeanings.net?
its a the song thats for the new generation. how we're always on electronic devices such as televisions..our new addicting drugs
Yes we are...hey, does anyone know who sings the verses? It sounds like Tim Armstrong, but I could be wrong...
Yeah, Tim Armstrong is the singer.
Haha yeah that is funny, scary perhaps. Another thing that is funny and scary perhaps is that i always think of if you switch heroin with television it's pretty much the same in this one.."new" addiciting drugs indeed.
great comparison. heroin. very true
lol oh the irony. Self explanitory, though nowadays it seems more relevent if it was the internet/computer instead of television. "I need my connection to the world outside" I love how armstrong is in this.
Meaning of the song is pretty clear. Can I just say... I love it when he comes in at the start... "Ooooh yeah!" It just makes me laugh. Anyway.
