The Tele

I was standing
At the crossroads
And I knew where to go
When a man with dreary eyes came along
He said: "hey man
Where you goin'?
Can I take a ride with you?
I gotta do a thing or two

Oh say can't you see
The runoff in the alley
Throw away all your dreams
Down the river valley
Have we come so far and wide
Or did I break your stride
Oh say can't you see
The pictures on the tele

Give em' guns games and bread
That's all they'll ever need
Trailer in the woods still a keep
Don't mind the classroom walls
And the bloody bathroom stalls
Stay home today and
Watch me on the tele

Oh say can't you see
The runoff in the alley
Throw away all your dreams
Down the river valley
Have we come so far and wide
Or did I break your stride
Oh say can't you see
My name is on the tele"
