Dead Battery

Multinational sitcom rating
Inoffensive and self effacing
The fountain of light info-tainment
Will never run dry
Another lunch break, another crisis
The bombs are smarter, the teeth are whiteness
Pay per view, and we will never lose
When all channels 69

And they'll put it right
Keep it right
Help you sleep at night, yeah

Who grew up to be the dead battery?
You wanna run me down and get shot of me?
Who grew up to be the dead battery?
You wanna run me down?

Another stitch up, another suture
Johnny was right when he said: No future
Put it straight so the dogs relate
With your brain dead TV skive

And they'll put it right
Keep it right
Help you sleep at night, yeah

Who grew up to be the dead battery?
You wanna run me down and get shot of me?
Who grew up to be the dead battery?
You wanna run me down?

Where's the peace? I forgot to mention
Back on yer feet, 'cause we die to attention
Put it right or we can just sit tight?
No sentience saved my soul
Another scandal, another sighting
Give us a break and we'll all be fighting
Satisfied that we'll all be fried
But at least we'll not look old

And they'll put it right
Keep it right
Help you sleep at night, yeah

Who grew up to be the dead battery?
You wanna run me down and get shot of me?
Who grew up to be the dead battery?
You wanna run me down?
Who grew up to be the dead battery?
You wanna run me down and get shot of me?
Who grew up to be the dead battery?
You wanna run me down?
