I don't need a doctor, I don't need a drugstore
I don't need an injection, I need to put the telly on.
Got me in a cold sweat, I don't need no cigarette
Sh sh sh shakin' like a jelly fish, I need a satellite dish
There's no doubt that I miss nowt, a TV I can't do without
Anything you get on yer television set I'll watch it...
[Chorus:]
I'm a telly, I'm a telly,telly I'm addicted
Telly I'm a telly, I can tell I am addicted
I'm a telly, I'm a telly, telly I'm addicted
Telly I'm a telly, I can tell I am addicted
I like to keep a step ahead, a TV in the garden shed
& with a telly in the bog, I never miss the epilogue
Dynasty or Daktari, a broadcast by the Tory party
Celebrity squares, blind date, who cares, I'll watch it...
I'm a telly...[guitar bit]
It's no surprise I've got square eyes, anyone could predict
I'm TV mad, I'm a telly addict!
I'm a man in great pain, the box is on the blink again
I don't need no morphine, I need a television screen
Documentaries, there's no degrees, I'll even watch a film
if it's
in Chinese
A speech from the Queen, though I'm not very keen. I'll
watch it...
I'm a telly...
Coz I'm addicted
