Doin' as I Seen on My TV Lyrics

When I was a child staring at the tube
I saw sex, violence and death on the news
One day I saw the Duke kill someone
Daddy said don't worry boy, they're just acting sonAll I want is attention from somebody
Somebody pay attention to me
Like them actors I got no shame
I want my fifteen minutes of fameDoin' as I see on my TV
Doin' as I see on my TVCan I get on the news if I kill my wife?
Would you respect me more if I took my life?
I tried to act and my career just flopped
So I beat up my neighbors and I got on "Cops"All I want's a millions bucks from somebody
Somebody pay a million bucks to meI could shoot and rape and kill
And buy me a house in Beverly Hills, please?Doin' as I see on my TV
Doin' as I see on my TVI'd even do a porno flick, like all them Hollywood chicks
I'm doin' it as I see on my TVTook my girl to rent a porno movie
I thought that it'd be kinda groovy
I thought that'd this impress my lover
And there she was right on the cover!All I want is attention from somebody

Somebody pay attention to me
I'm a man I got no shame
I want my fifteen minutes of fameDoin' as I see on my TV
Doin' as I see on my TVHell I'd even do a porno flick, like my hero Rocky didDoin' as I see on my TVWhistling, garglingI am not aware!
