Nuthin' on the TV

Everybody's worryin' 'bout the fight in the high street

Everybody's worried 'bout the debts that they can't meet

Well you work till you're wet with sweat

And what do you get? Nuthin' on the T.V.

All I ever hear about is ayatollahs

The headline scream and the newscast hollers

What's gonna happen next? Is anybody guess?

I'm just a rock 'n' roller.

They got videos remote controls

You better believe me and watchin' repeats

Does nothin' but grieve me.

We all know about rising inflation

It sure ain't no cause for no celebration

And if that ain't enough, there ain't no sun

I've got to become an overnight sensation, overnight sensation.
