Colour T.V. (Lyrics)

There's a riot on the television Monochrome 26 inch precision There it is in black and white You ignored it once you can do it twice But wouldn't it look better on a color T.V.? Wouldn't it look better on a color T.V.? Wouldn't it look so much better on a color T.V.? There's fighting in the boxing ring And millions watching it happening It's blind acceptance to be entertained And the license fee has gone up, up, up, up again But wouldn't it look better on a color T.V.? Wouldn't it look better on a color T.V.? Wouldn't it look so much better on a color T.V.? The country is at war, the news is at ten Our boys are out there being turned into men Being turned into corpses by human greed Being turned into heroes, the flag's on the screen Burn it down, burn it down But wouldn't it look better on a color T.V.? Wouldn't it look better on a color T.V.? Oh wouldn't it look so much better on a color T.V.? Riots and boxing and patriots dying War games with losers whose wives can't stop crying Death blood and glory and big documentaries The truth and the fiction, everyone's superman Turn on the T.V. and everyone's fighting Everyone's watching everyone fighting Everyone's watching on new luxuries Cos the blood runs redder on color T.V.s Yeah the blood runs redder on color T.V.s Their blood runs redder on color T.V.s Redder [x13]
