If
you
wanna
have
fun
come
home
with
me
You
can
stay
all
night
and
play
with
my
TV
TV
is
the
thing
this
year,
this
year
TV
is
the
thing
this
year
Radio
was
great,
now
it′s
out
of
date
TV
is
the
thing
this
year
Last
night
I
was
watching
old
Tom
Nix
My
TV
broke,
I
was
in
a
fix
I
Got
on
the
phone,
and
called
my
man,
Said
get
here
daddy
as
fast
as
you
can
TV
is
the
thing
this
year,
oh
TV
is
the
thing
this
year,
Radio
was
great,
but
now
it's
out
of
date
And
TV
is
the
thing
this
year
Now
he
turned
my
dial
to
channel
one
I
knew
that
this
was
gonna
be
fun
He
turned
my
dial
to
channel
two
That
station
thrilled
me
through
and
through
He
moved
one
notch
to
channel
three
I
said
oh
how
I
love
what
you′re
doin'
to
me
He
said,
wait
a
minute,
let's
try
channel
four
Just
about
that
time
someone
knocked
on
the
door
TV
is
the
thing
this
year,
oh
yes
TV
is
the
thing
this
year,
Radio
was
great,
now
it′s
out
of
date
TV
is
the
thing
this
year
The
way
he
eased
into
channel
five
That
man
musta
had
fluid
drive
He
moved
once
more
to
channel
six
Then
he
opened
up
his
bag
of
tricks
On
channel
seven
the
show
was
late
But
we
got
our
kicks
on
channel
eight
He
turned
my
dial
to
channel
nine
Said
Baby,
your
set
is
workin′
fine
He
moved
on
up
to
channel
ten
Then
we
started
all
over
again
He
finally
hit
channel
eleven
I
cried
mama,
he
treats
your
daughter
so
good!
TV
is
the
thing
this
year,
yes
TV
is
the
thing
this
year
Yes
radio
was
great,
but
now
it's
out
of
date
TV
is
the
thing
this
year
Baby
my
set
will
need
fixin′
just
about
this
time
every
night!
