เพลง : I Saw It On T.V.
ศิลปิน : John Fogerty C.C.R.
They sent us home
to watch the show
comin' on the little screen
A man named Ike
was in the White House
big black limousine
There were many shows to follow
from Hooter to Doodyville
Though I saw them all
I can't recall
which cartoon was real.
The coon-skin caps
Yankee bats
the Hound Dog man's big start
The A-Bomb fears,
Annette had ears,
I lusted in my heart.
A young man from Boston
set sail the new frontier
And we watched the Dream
dead-end in Dallas
They buried innocence that year
I know it's true, oh so true
'cause I saw it on TV.
We gathered round
to hear the sound
comin' on the little screen
The grief had passed
the old men laughed
and all the girls screamed
'Cause four guys from England
took us all by the hand
It was time to laugh
time to sing
time to join the band
But all too soon
we hit the moon
and covered up the sky
They built their bombs
and aimed their guns
and still I don't know why
The dominoes tumbled
and big business roared
Every night at six
they showed the pictures
and counted up the score.
I know it's true, oh so true
'cause I saw it on TV.
The old man rocks
among his dreams
a prisoner of the porch
The light, he says
At the end of the tunnel,
Was nothin' but a burglar's torch
And them that was caught in the Cover
are all rich and free
But they chained my mind
to an endless tomb
When they took
my only son from me.
I know it's true, oh so true
'cause I saw it on TV.
I know it's true, oh so true
'cause I saw it on TV.
