VCR Lyrics by Recessive Traits

A Dip In Your Gene Pool

1988

[Verse 1]
First thing that I do when I get home from my work
I turn on my TV and then I don't feel like a jerk
People on my TV are all happy to see me
They look me in the eye and they tell me how to be
[Chorus]
I'm so happy when the TV smiles at me
I feel lucky, all my friends are on TV
Who needs people? The world's at my fingertips
Life is simple, I need a VCR
[Verse 2]
Popeye tells me how to act and how to get the girls
Donahue is helping me understand my world
I grab a TV dinner and I chеck my TV guide
Choices are so hard so I dеcide not to decide
[Chorus]
I'm so happy when the TV smiles at me
I feel lucky, all my friends are on TV
Who needs people? The world's at my fingertips
Life is simple, I need a VCR
[Verse 3]
Vanna White entices me, I wish I was on Dynasty
The Munsters are on channel three, Barney Fife and old Aunt Bea
I got a satellite dish and I got a big screen TV
I got just about everything I could ever dream of
[Chorus]
I'm so happy when the TV smiles at me
I feel lucky, all my friends are on TV
Who needs people? The world's at my fingertips
Life is simple, I need a VCR
