THE TV SONG



Words and Music by Randal Walker
Copyright 1997 - Beyond The Asphalt Music (BMI)
Vocals by Randal Walker


Looks like she's LEAVE-'in IT TO BEAVER,
MAKE-'in ROOM FOR DADDY now.
I LOVE LUCY, but she don't love me;
I'll make it through, somehow.
There's been a BRADY BUNCH of somethin' wrong;
If FATHER KNOWS BEST, I fail.
She's packin' up LASSIE with MY THREE SONS,
And our GREEN ACRE's up for sale.


We're just a coupla baby boomers;
A generation LOST IN SPACE.
TV dinners and TV Guides,
Paved the way for tv trays.
We put ourselves in debt to buy a tv set;
Our dinette became obsolete.
BEWITCHED from the start, we confused life with art,
'Til our own lives felt incomplete.


CHORUS:
June and Ward made things look easy;
Hell, they were livin' on Easy Street.
Rob loved Laura, and I coulda swore,
Endora still had a thing for Maurice.
They were such HAPPY DAYS-OF OUR LIVES;
We let them slip away, somehow.
If love could just be the way it was on tv,
She wouldn't be leavin' me now.


So MARCUS WELBY-low the average,
On Mr. Nielsen's rating scale.
DR. KILDARE can't cure this FAMILY AFFAIR;
Our LOVE BOAT simply won't set sail.
It's LOVE AMERICAN STYLE; don't you touch that dial;
GOMER PYLE chose the single life.
He'd simply take in a movie with Miss LuAnn Puvy,
But he never made the woman his wife.

(repeat CHORUS)


ADDITIONAL SONGS FOR YOUR
LISTENING PLEASURE....
ALL NIGHT LONG
THE OKIE POKEY
I DREAMED YOU
A BETTER PLACE TO GO
MONEY CAN'T BUY ME
YOU'VE CROSSED OVER THE LINE
LIFE BEHIND THE STEAMIRON CURTAIN
THE GUY JUST DRIVES ME CRAZY
IF LOVE IS BLIND
FROM THE MOMENT I MET YOU
