Lyrics and Chords


[Capo 3]

I used to think my life was so empty
I used to think life was passing me by
Well, I was just about ready
To curl up and die

/ D - D7 - / G - Em - / D Bm G A / D - C G / 

But then one day I got a visit
From the cable company
Well they hooked me up and plugged me right in
And now I got cable TV

... / D F# Bm E / D A D - /

And now I get to watch the stock report in Korean
Midget wrestling on channel three
It costs me fifty bucks a month just to see 'em
Yeah, but that's all right with me

/ Bm - D - / A - G - / Bm - D - / F - G - /

I got cable TV, cable TV
Cable TV, cable TV
Oh, 83 channels of ecstasy
I love my cable TV, yeah
I love my cable TV

/ D - Bm - / D - A - / Bm A G - / C G D - / /

I got the Siamese Faith Healer's Network
The news and weather from Peru
I got Celebrity Hockey
The Racquetball channel, too

Bugs Bunny direct from Atlanta
Mr. Wizard is on at five
I got a satellite dish on the trunk of my car
So I can watch MTV while I drive

I'm talkin' 'bout real quality programs
The kind you just can't get for free
Now I never wanna leave my apartment
'Cause there's just so much for me to see

On my cable TV, cable TV
Cable TV, cable TV
Well, if you need to find me you know where I'll be
Watchin' my cable TV, yeah
Watchin' my cable TV
'Cause I love my cable TV, yeah
I love my cable TV

My friends are getting kinda worried
They think I'm turning into some kinda freak
Oh, but they're just jealous
'Cause I've seen "Porky's" 27 times this week

/ A - - - / G - - - / D - / C - G - A - / 

On my cable TV, cable TV
Cable TV, cable TV
Yeah the greatest thing that's ever happened to me
I love my cable TV, yeah
I love my cable TV
Well, I gotta have cable TV, yeah
I need my cable TV
Well I love, I love my cable TV
I love my cable TV...
