(eric carmen/john wesley harding) I like the colors I like the way they move They're all so brilliantly realized They just could not be improved I love the way the s** is so overt I love the way the violence doesn't hurt It's a cartoon world It's exactly as it seems And it's bigger than life And better than all your dreams It's a cartoon world It's a safer place to be And it's better than real A perfect facsimile It's a cartoon world I like the things their saying I like the way they're said I like to change the channels While i'm lying in my bed From the commercial to the anchorman They've done research on my attention span It's a cartoon world It's exactly as it seems And it's smaller than life And better than all your dreams
It's a cartoon world It's a safer place to be And it's better than real And bigger than you and me And the stars are brighter They've got more charisma And more style than you and me I watch the news on tv It doesn't mean a thing to me What's a little ethnic cleansing? That's the way it's always been I was excited when the war began Now i've got gameboy, i'm a happy man It's a cartoon world It's exactly as it seems And it's bigger than life And better than all your dreams It's a cartoon world It's a safer place to be And it's better than real A perfect facsimile It's a cartoon world It's a cartoon world It's a cartoon world It's a cartoon world It's a cartoon world It's a cartoon world
