Before that sacred holy flickering tv-screen

You're served commercials day-time fakes and tv-priests

You keep your VCR running almost constantly

Afraid to miss out on something happening on channel three



You zap from channel one to two look what they have done to you

You live from staged realities and fakes

Channel three then four and five you double check your tv-guide

Re-enacted lives to keep you awake



Life is served

Here every taste will find our satisfaction guarantee

On the never sleeping flickering screen



You keep watching this truly weird masquarade

The flickering screen enchants you your truly all enslaved



Nostalgia sports and comedies, cops cartoons and tragedies

Remote control at hand you sit enslaved

Washing powder and apple pies re-runs soaps and Jesus Christ

Anytime is time to zap the world away



Life is served...

We're your tellyvisions

You zap from channel one to two...

Nostalgia sports and comedies...

Life is served...
