lyrics

[Scene]
A: Babe, get in here, it’s starting!
B: I know, I’m getting your drink that you asked for!
A: Well I could do without the attitude…
B: Oh, could you?
A: What do you mean, could I? Of course I could––

[Verse]
I snuck a peak and found no one that’s not me
So I juggled my feet across town decked in motley
Seeking applause to seem oddly godly
Channel one! We want you to watch me

Attention expected wherever I walk in
Absently serving my talking
But at least you’ll catch that I matched my shirt and my socks when
Only my face can fit in my coffin

[Chorus]
Laughter, applause, and abrasive bells!
Covered in glue, so I’ll stick!
Everything’s huge, everything’s huge but my–– car!

Channel one… Channel one...

[Verse]
Head like the tail of peacock
Consumed by the movements of grooming my plumage
A whole pack of lions outweighing my seesaw
Crooning my tune after nobody queued it

Ratings are great, but the studio’s empty

Getting replaced by a beautiful memory
Channel one, the view for the many

Doo doo doo…., Whenever I––

[Scene]
Director: CUT! Uh… alright, that was lovely… very tender
Clown: Thanks…
Director: Let’s make–– ahh…. Bring it back to the fun part and we’ll just call it a day

[Chorus]
Laughter, applause, and abrasive bells!
Covered in glue, so I’ll stick!
Everything’s huge, everything’s huge but my–– car!
