Intro

Verse

My TV's staring at me

It says 'go to sleep, go to sleep'

Turns me into a Siamese twin

Where do I start

The TV screen begins

Plugs me into some holy geek

His point in life is incomplete

My TV is telling me that only money will make me happy

Pre-chorus

Hold the course and then sail

Hold the course and then sail

Chorus

Across the satellite beams

Across the oceans and seas

To the lighthouse I could be

I see some soldiers with guns

And they are killing for fun

They are killing to entertain me

Verse

Caught between that world and this

I'd sell my soul for a Bond girl's kiss

Caught between that world and this

I'd sell my soul for a state of bliss

My TV's telling me that all our money goes into the military

Pre-chorus

Hold the course and then sail

Hold the course and then sail

Chorus

Across the satellite beams

Across the oceans or seas

to the lighthouse I could be

I see some soldiers with guns

And they are killing for fun

They were dying to entertain me

And then I heard your name

As the spaceman came

He came right through my screen

And then his lifeline broke

He began to choke

Jump cut to another scene

(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)

We lost a friend to the sea

(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)

We lost a friend to the sea

(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)

We lost a friend to the sea

(Your health taken, your health taken, your health taken away)
