television

is the condition of my connection 

to the machine

and in its warm glow

we wathced the flames grow

till the bones show

till it stripped you clean



well i had it bad

we were barely on the screen

with the trips i had

swallowed everything

except for you



chorus:

now the last great hollywood high

stole right over the rails

and i'm

the last great hollywood high

after it shows who knows

where it will go?



halloween dust

came between us

it always seemed just in the way

its the decision 

your script revision

all the stars evolve 

but the story's the same



well i had it bad

you were barely on the screen

with the trips i had

swallowed everything 

except for you

repeat chorus



repeat chorus



well i've had it bad

i was barely on the screen

with the trips i had

swallowed everything

well i had it bad

except for you



repeat chorus
