[Verse 1]
When I'm at work, ya, I always rush right home for lunch
So I can check out what's up on the Brady Bunch
And when I'm walking through the front door at night
I gotta see who's winning on The Price is Right, oh

[Chorus]
I never dreamed that I'd spend my days
Staring at some tube emitting cathode rays
I need my TV

[Verse 2]
What's happening in this world, I don't care at all
But it better not pre-empt Monday Night Football
I can't even come up with my own views
I'm taught how to think from the evening news, oh

[Chorus]
I never dreamed that I'd spend my days
Staring at some tube emitting cathode rays
I need my TV

[Outro]
La la la...
