(eric carmen/john wesley harding)



I like the colors

I like the way they move

They're all so brilliantly realized

They just could not be improved



I love the way the sex is so overt

I love the way the violence doesn't hurt



It's a cartoon world

It's exactly as it seems

And it's bigger than life

And better than all your dreams



It's a cartoon world

It's a safer place to be

And it's better than real

A perfect facsimile

It's a cartoon world



I like the things their saying

I like the way they're said

I like to change the channels

While I'm lying in my bed



From the commercial to the anchorman

They've done research on my attention span



It's a cartoon world

It's exactly as it seems

And it's smaller than life

And better than all your dreams



It's a cartoon world

It's a safer place to be

And it's better than real

And bigger than you and me



And the stars are brighter

They've got more charisma

And more style than you and me



I watch the news on tv

It doesn't mean a thing to me

What's a little ethnic cleansing? 

That's the way it's always been



I was excited when the war began

Now I've got gameboyI'm a happy man



It's a cartoon world

It's exactly as it seems

And it's bigger than life

And better than all your dreams



It's a cartoon world

It's a safer place to be

And it's better than real

A perfect facsimile

It's a cartoon world



It's a cartoon world

It's a cartoon world



It's a cartoon world

It's a cartoon world



It's a cartoon world
