Testi musica canzoni

They sent us home to watch the show
Comin' on the little screen
A man named Ike was in the White House
Big black limosine

There were many shows to follow
From Hooter to Doodyville
Though I saw them all
I can't recall
Which cartoon was real

The coonskin caps Yankke bats
The Hound Dog Man's big start
The A-Bomb fears Annette had ears
I lusted in my heart

A young man from Boston
Set sail The New Frontier
And we watched the dream
Dead-end in Dallas
They buried innocence that year

I know it's true
Oh so true
'Cause I saw it on TV

We gathered 'round to hear the sound
Comin' on the little screen
The grief had passed the old man laughed
And all the girls screamed

'Cause four guys from England
Took us all by the hand
It was time to laugh
Time to sing
Time to join the band

But all too soon we hit the Moon
And covered up the sky
They built their bombs
And aimed their guns
And still I dont know why

The dominoes tumbled
And big business roared
Everynight at six
They showed the pictures
And counted up the score

I know it's true
Oh so true
Cause I saw it on TV

The old man rocks among his dreams
A prisoner of the porch
The light he says at the end of the tunnel
Was nothin' but a burglar's torch

And them that was caught in the Cover
Are all rich and free
But they chained my mind
To an endless tomb
When they took my only son from me

I know it's true
Oh so true
Cause I saw it on TV
