What's your favorite lyric from a song?

I have watched my fair share of TV in my life and now I fully embrace this song!
Get out there and do it and live life yourself and not through others...get out of the stands passively wasting your life away and get out there on stage and really live! Make your life your performance! Step up to the plate! Take the noose off your ambition!

Throw away your television
Time to make this clean decision
Master waits for it’s collision now
It’s a repeat of a story told
It’s a repeat and it’s getting old

Throw away your television
Make a break big intermission
Recreate your super vision now
It’s a repeat of a story told
It’s a repeat and it’s getting old

Renegades with fancy gauges
Slay the plague for it’s contagious
Pull the plug and take the stages
Throw away your television now

Oh oh oh

Throw away your television
Take the noose off your ambition
Reinvent your intuition now
It’s a repeat of a story told
It’s a repeat and it’s getting old

shadorne,
You forgot to mention whose song this is.

I just googled it, Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Throw Away Your Television - couldn’t agree with it more. I just use the TV for the occasional old movie (Last Picture Show, Kane, Vertigo, or YouTube / classic Doctor Who etc). Music is way less constrictive, and thank God I’ve still got friends worth talking to.

My dad seems to watch TV all day, but then he is in his 80's!

"Well I stared out of my windshield
into the rains so light
I put on my dims...
somebody flashed their brights,
and I reached over
turned the radio down low
your sister cried
all the way home
lightening crashed
and the road shown like a mirror
a dog came out of the ditch
and then he disappeared
and I remember a conversation
we had on the phone
and your sister cried
all the way home"

Mary Gauthier "Your Sister Cried"

"Bums drink and wonder round
tramps drink and wonder too
well the hobo was a pioneer
who preferred to work for food
he knew how our nation was doin’
by the length of a sidewalk cigarette butt
born with an aching wanderlust
embedded within his gut
hounded and beat and broke and chased out of every town
with his walking stick severed with his coffee can crown
the last, of the hobo kings.’

THE GREAT MARY GAUTHIER! "The Last of the Hobo Kings"



Now tell me there is no good music made today.....
