"Like TV" Lyrics

i guess i've always wondered why life can't be more like TV
everything is perfect its the ideal fantasy
there's nothing that lasts longer than a 30-minute conflict
wish everything that sucks could end that quick that quick
that quick yeah
everything on tv always seems to work out so ideally
everything on TV's the way it should be
everything on TV seems to work out so ideally
everything on TV's the way it should be
the way it should be
i wish i had a laugh track to go along
wish i was like TV and had my own theme song
i wish that i could drive nice cars and travel far away
in 30 minutes a day
as i turn on my television set
i watch the screen and i forget
the things that didn't go my way
they all just fade away
