Dan Hetzel - Television Song lyrics

[Verse 1] Darling, if you have to cry Just look into the camera eye We don't want to miss it Stay in focus, stay in frame We'll make sure they know your name But those people can be vicious And it's all who you know [Verse 2] Just fall back onto the mat We have people who do that They've all signed a waiver Such a body, such a face You could be our saving grace The commission, the retainer And it's all who you know [Chorus] Someday, baby, you'll break their hearts But this is how everybody starts For now, just play along The singer, not the song And we all know the television's wrong Don't I know you? [Verse 3] What was that, Evangeline? Why, whatever do you mean? It's all taken care of Just relax and have a drink We're not paying you to think And there's nothing to be scared of Cause it's all who you know [Chorus] Someday, baby, you'll break their hearts But this is how everybody starts For now, just play along The singer, not the song And we all know the television's wrong Don't I know you? Don't I know you? [Verse 4] Darling, we need you to cry Please don't think to question why We're not trying to type you We made you into what you are A candy coated superstar But there's a thousands others like you And it's all who they know [Chorus] Someday, baby, you'll break their hearts But this is how everybody starts For now, just play along The singer, not the song And we all know the television's wrong
