Douglas Gwilym - Television

The Vicar and his wife
Spend the night in cheap hotels
Always foil train robberies
And command the swell
Of the mighty Mississip
Without even getting wet
All from the comfort of their own skin

I am your television
No remote is in my hands
Turn me off, turn me up
Make me love, make me dance
Rum tum ta - tee da ta!
Rum tum ta - tee da ta!

And when the tap is left to drip
And the tap is left to stream
It's a faulty argument
It's a self-fulfilling dream
It's as much for me to dance
As if they weren't pulling those strings

I am your television
No remote is in my hands
Turn me off, turn me up
Make me love, make me dance
Rum tum ta - tee da ta!
Rum tum ta - tee da ta!

So "Good evening and welcome"
So "Now a word from our sponsor"
So "A one and a two and a..."
I'm a doctor, I'm a monster
Don't let me confuse you
Do you remember how it felt to dance?

I am your television
No remote is in my hands
Turn me off, turn me up
Make me love, make me dance
Rum tum ta - tee da ta!
Rum tum ta - tee da ta!
