fish hook
Some people are just all show
I don't mind that if the show is worth watching
But it's all bark, and no tree
What's more ironic than a hippie in Versace?
It's all peace and love and limousines
You've got the right message but the wrong intentions
How can you be touchy-feely when you've lost touch?
I think its time we had a little intervention with you
Hey now, wake up
And lose the makeup
She makes you want to know her
When you don't know what it's worth
Now you really want to show her
How she's just so down to earth
Via satellite
There's no better friends than the kind you pay
And if they don’t bow and scrape, then the door will keep revolving
It's a tight circle of a chosen few
How'd you manage that with a recipe involving
Just a pinch of sweetness and a cup of angst?
Mix it all up; you’re the all purpose flower
Though it looks delicious, something smells bad
I don't think I'd last half an hour with you
Hey now, wake up
And lose the makeup
She makes you want to know her
When you don't know what it's worth
Now you really want to show her
How she's just so down to earth
Via satellite
What's it like to love you?
When there's no one else above you?
When no one gets to know you
Who'll be there to show you...
Via satellite?
It's like making love to a TV
It's kind of novel but it’s miles away from satisfying
Your hangers-on say it's a great deal
But what you're selling there's no chance in Hell that I'll be buying
Hey now, wake up
And lose the makeup
