MTV Makes Me Want To Smoke Crack lyrics - Beck

MTV makes me wanna smoke crack

Fall out of the window and I'm never coming back

MTV makes me wanna get high

Can't get it right no matter how I try

Everything's perfect and everything's bright

And everyone's perky and everyone's uptight

I watch those videos, I watch them all day

And I plug 'em in my eyeballs, hey

And the colors are nice and the pictures are nice

And the girls are nice, everything's so nice and

MTV makes me wanna smoke crack

Fall out of the window and I'm never coming back

MTV makes me wanna get high

Can't get a ride, can't get a ride

Can't get a ride, can't get a ride

Well, I work at the video store makin' change

And I'm countin' out the pennies, twistin' in my brain

Condos in the distance and smog in the air

No-one in the streets and no-one anywhere

And I drink when I drink and I eat from a can

And I'm standing by the microwave 'till I feel special!

And I'm checking out the furniture, I want to buy a sofa

I might buy a wheelchair and roll out of this town

And MTV made me wanna smoke crack

Fall out of the window and I'm never comin' back

MTV made me wanna get high

Can't get a ride, can't get a ride

Can't get a ride, can't get a ride

Can't get a ride, can't get a ride

MTV makes me wanna burn flesh

Have a little orgy down in that satellite dish
