It's the same old movie on my TV that's showing Again Mommy's insane Her baby's dead But the cradle still rocks its head It's the funniest thing It's something to see Over and over again On my TV
The man in a white collar is on the screen Acting for his big dollar Channel Three is all I need Preacher says he'll set me free On my TV
I found salvation on the station There's salvation sold on that station As the cameras roll The satellite feeds my brain And I hide in that ghostly light It's my oh so lonely life
In a soap opera today Come tomorrow there'll be a different character To play I'm losing grip in the rat race In a cop chase I'm the thief committing crime Well it's on the prime-time On the news line Just like Channel Three A millionaire ministry Mass producing faith like a factory Won't you set me free From my TV
I found salvation on the station Found salvation on the station There's salvation sold on that station As the cameras roll The satellite feeds my brain And I hide in that ghostly light It's my lonely life It feels like I'm living in a sequel I'm living for the salvation station Yes, I'm living in a sequel It never ends
