MTV makes me wanna smoke crack
fall out of the window and I'm never comin back
mtv makes me wanna get high
can't get a ride no matter how I try
and everything's perfect
and everything's bright
and everyone's perky
and everyone's uptight
I watch those videos
I watch 'em all day........
and I plug 'em in my eyeballs--
hey hey
and the colors are nice
and the pictures are nice
and the girls are nice
everything's so nice
I said MTV makes me wanna smoke crack
fall out of the window and I'm never comin back
MTV makes me wanna get high
can't get a ride, can't get a ride
can't get a ride, can't get a ride
well I work at the video store makin change
and I'm countin out the pennies twistin in my brains
condos in the distance and smog in the air
no one in the streets and no one anywhere
and I drink what I drink and I eat from a can
and I'm standing near the microwave
'til I feel special
now I'm checkin out the furniture, I wanna buy some
might buy a wheelchair and roll out of this town
yeah, and MTV makes me wanna smoke crack
fall out of the window and I'm never comin back
MTV makes me wanna get high
can't get a ride, can't get a ride
can't get a ride, can't get a ride
can't get a ride, can't get a ride
MTV makes me wanna burn flesh!
having an orgy down in the satellite dish!!!
(coughing)
