Michael Kagan - Big TV lyrics

Slow I'm gonna settle down slow Down to the hum of Electric life and soul Faith In my hand to trade But for the word and The light of a bitter saint And you can get me work But I can't work for free I've got a room downtown With a bed and a big TV If you can raise a star From garbage on the street Then you can make a modern life For a modern girl to lead Alone I feel alone When I'm living in a building Like a tooth in heaven's throat True It's a beautiful view But you know they're gonna set it on fire When they feel like something new And you can get me work But I can't work for free I've got a room downtown With a bed and a big TV If you can raise a star From garbage on the street Then you can make a modern life For a modern girl to lead But why can't anything be real? Emotion like the movies feel A pill to break the drone of reverie So bring me to the hand of fate The river or a new arcade So I can wash the empty hour away But why can't anything be real? Emotion like the movies feel So bring me to the hand of fate The river on a new arcade And you can get me work But I can't work for free I've got a room downtown With a bed and a big TV If you can raise a star From garbage on the street Then you can make a modern life For a modern girl to lead Cause I'm living in a room downtown With a bed and a big TV [x6]
