Idiot Box

I can turn you off

Well I just tried & left you off

Tumbling you may be art

But you sure ain't a rock'n'roll



People standing in the rain

Just to see that screen Verlaine

Supersonic I'll come back soon

'Cause all we got is a Marquee moon



Billy Ficca don't waste my time

Just turning on to What's My Line

Richard Lloyd you're here this night

You should have road the golden stars



People standing in the rain

Just to see that screen Verlaine

Supersonic I'll come back soon

'Cause all we got is a Marquee Moon



Old friend Smith works for the box

Oh what a haggard face

Hope he gets a lot of shocks

From his Fender bass



People standing in the rain

Just to see that screen Verlaine

Supersonic I'll come back soon

'Cause all I've got is a Marquee Moon
