Remote Control Lyrics

Things get hectic quick
     From the satellite dish to your joy stick
     It's the night of the living cable box
     Wires coming up from around the block
     Remote control to change the station
     But that won't change your situation
     Have you seen what I mean
     I'm the little gnome that's in your dreams
     So I say this rhyme built by design
     To take you beyond space and time
     Said who is the man making diamonds out of coal
     The man pushing buttons on remote control

     Until your back's up against the wall
     You never know yourself that much at all
     So you've got to share your love with a friend
     That's all that you've got left in the end
     Living in this city of pure confusion
     People mislead by their own illusion
     All this action, no satisfaction
     We're all linked together like a chain reaction
     Play or fold, love is bold
     What is the future that will unfold?
     Some like it hot, others like it cold
     But we all want to hold the remote control
     Things get hectic quick
     All of the sudden I'm in the thick
     Too much drama all around
     Distractions booming in sensuround
     Like a rainy day's Earth won't sit still
     Sliding on down a hill
     Sometimes life seems to stall
     So never be ungrateful y'all
     So I got a little something for your pay per view
     Like Don King I've got the crazy hair do
     We've got cameras on Mars on space patrol
     Controlled on Earth by remote control
