Watch World War Three (on Pay Tv)

 And you buy this bullshit
 At soul level,
 And you plead for more of the same
 From the idiot box
 In the corner.

Cântecelul e cam în stilul lui Spike Jones...

Watch World War III on pay TV

Television can be such a thrill

Sitting home in your chair

Watch the boys over there

Charging across your TV screen

Getting blown to smithereens

Watch World War III on pay TV

If you want to keep the kids at home

They'll be glued to their sets

Watching rockets and jets

Blowing up schools and factories

Putting an end to the birds and bees

It's worth every penny to tune in and see

Who wins the Emmy

At the ruins of the Academy

Watch World War III on pay TV

Before your television melts away

Think of the close-ups on the screen

Find a face you know

Isn't this better than Bishop Sheen?

Better than the Late, Late Show?

Watching the boys from your home town

Fighting whoever they are

Watching the cities falling down

It's greater than Jack Paar!

They're out setting up the cameras now

Though they don't know just where

Still they've got to prepare

Murrow's there to do his part

Waiting for the war to start

See the hydrogen bomb explode

As those mushrooms appear

You'll be sipping your beer

Zooming in with the Zoomar lens

Watching while the whole world ends

It's worth every penny

To tune in and see

Who wins the Emmy

At the ruins of the Academy

Watch World War III on pay TV

Before your television melts away

Before your television melts away
