|
I open up one eye and I can see |
|
A million T.V. screens from wall to wall |
|
And as I look again it seems to me |
|
My picture is projected on them all. |
|
From far away I see my body now |
|
I can follow every movement that I make |
|
But I can't remember where I am or how, |
|
Or wether I am dreaming or awake. |
|
Sooner or later, |
|
I'll believe the world's not round, |
|
I'll turn up the vision, |
|
turn up the sound. |
|
For I have discovered that I'm not what I seem, |
|
I'm only a picture on a video screen. |
|
And as I rise to get myself another drink, |
|
It seems like I'm some distance from my brain. |
|
I'm looking down and I begin to think |
|
This must be what it's like to go insane. |
|
Sooner or later, |
|
I'll believe the world's not round, |
|
I'll turn up the vision, |
|
turn up the sound. |
|
For I have discovered that I'm not what I seem, |
|
I'm only a picture on a video screen. |
|
And sooner or later, |
|
when the night comes rolling down, |
|
Fear and confusion are all around; |
|
I know that the problems |
|
And the nightmares that I dream |
|
Are only pictures on a video screen. |
