    Story Behind the Song
    Getting depressed with all the junk on TV!

    Lyrics
    Nine o’clock what’s on TV, makes no dif-er-ence to me, monkey do as monkey see, don’t change that station, who cares what’s playin’
    Oprah, Springer, Mr Spock, Baywatch, Seinfeld, ER docs, up-beat commercials round the clock, skip the news at 11, for Dave Letterman

    Chorus:
    I do what my television tells me, I don’t know why

    I got Lucky Charms and Sugar Smacks, Coke and Pepsi and Big Macs, Mentos candy and Cracker Jack, got Listerine and Clorox clean,
    I got a South Park hat, Nike shoes and Docker slacks, a sale priced shirt from the Gap, got reruns tonight, and some Miller Lite

    Chorus:
    I do what my television tells me, I don’t know why, I don’t know why, I don’t know why, I don’t know why

    Bridge:
    Happy Days and memories, images brought back to me, yesterday we easily, made fun of the TV

    Chorus:
    But I do what my television tells me, I don’t know why

    Recliner chair and my TV, as close to prayer as I can be, images, are slithering, right through my eyes, into my mind
    I carry my remote off to bed, and wonder about the life I’ve led, my mind confused by talking heads, I do what they say, but it’s not helping

    Chorus:
    I do what my television tells me, I don’t know why
    I do what my television tells me, I don’t know why, I don’t know why, I don’t know why, I don’t know why
    Outro:
    I have done what my television told me…
    …and it makes me cry, and it makes me cry, and it makes me cry, and it makes me cry
    …and it makes me cry, and it makes me cry, and it makes me cry, and it makes me cry
    …and it makes me cry, and it makes me cry, and it makes me cry, and it makes me cry
