lyrics

We’ve Only 2 Channels (And There Is Nothing On)

I’ve got a big old house on Swimming Pool Road
Got so many things but the one thing I forgot
Bought the most up to date colour tv set
No satellite dish, it was impossible to pay.

When I’m home alone and my baby’s gone
I wanna see some film and switch the tv on
Just a talk-show running and the boredom’s coming
This is state-owned high-standard tv-scream adaption.

Well, these 2 damn channels cost me sleepless nights
With my baby we always get the channel-fights
She wants to see the arts, I wanna see some sports
The same sad question: “Baby should we get divorced?”

But before our endless love breaks by a tv set
We should talk it over one more time in bed
And after many hours, we come to a solution
That state-owned tv is a serious pollution.

Chorus
We’ve only 2 channels and there’s nothing on!
We’ve only 2 channels and there’s nothing on!
We’ve only 2 channels and there’s nothing on!
Every night!
