TV Movie

[Intro]
A-one two three four

[Verse 1]
I woke up last night shakin' from a dream
For in that dream, I died
My wife rolled over and told me
That my life would be immortalized
Not in some major motion picture
Or great American novel, you see
No, they're gonna make a TV movie outta me

[Chorus]
Well now, it's one two three, you take the money
Yeah, it's as easy as A B C
Yeah, they're gonna make a TV movie outta me

[Verse 2]
Well, they can change my name or they can leave it
Yeah, they can change my story too
Or they can make me black or Chinese
And do things that I never did do
They're gonna give my life a whole new ending
And put me in prime time first-run
And when it's over, what I did there will be what I done

[Chorus]
Well, now I don't want my name in a history book
Nobody's ever gonna see
No, they're gonna make a TV movie outta me
(Let's rock and roll alright, oh yeah)

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Yeah, well, it's one two three, you take the money
I mean it's as easy as A B C
Well, they're gonna make a TV movie outta me
(One more verse now)

[Verse 3]
Well, I'm a shoo-in for a sponsor
Goodyear blimp and radial wheels
Somebody had a meeting somewhere
Somehow somebody made a deal
Well, I was one of them kinds of stories
That everybody liked to see
Yeah, they're gonna make a TV movie outta me

[Chorus]
Now, I don't want no inscription on my gravestone
No long soliloquy
No, they're gonna make a TV movie outta me
(One more time)
Well, it's one two three, you take the money
I mean it's easy as A B C
Yeah, they're gonna make a TV movie outta me (Alright)
