Mansun
On top of the hour (compulsive my behaviour)
I see my life through sky news (keeping things in order)
Keep on watching on my wide-screen set
Cant contain myself
Im going pay-per-view
Think Ill explode (in the corner of my room)
If I do too much gak (sits my one big eyeball)
Its with the advent of this pay-per-view
Cant control myself
I scratch my knee
I have to scratch the other
(this is sky news) documentaries are the best
Thru my t.v., through my t.v.
All my problems come
I study quite hard (in the corner of my room)
When I should be in bed (sits my one big eyeball)
Im in the open university
A constant imprint of the test card on my eyes
I think I should rest (compulsive my behaviour)
Sleep on one side and then the other (keeping things in order)
Always searching for the abilene
Cant control myself
