Static

One, two, three, tap your feet, such a classic melody

One, two, three, you know the words, so sing along with me

One, two, three, motley scenes shining through the silver screen

One, two, three, don't cha think this is how it ought to be?

Just another day, throw your cares away

And laugh hand-in-hand with me

Just another day, just another day

(It's just another day, it's just another day)

One, two, three, what's the nicest thing you see? (Hmm)

It's me

The world you know, always runnin' to and fro

A frightful place to be

But don't be scared, I'm not going anywhere!

So just don't touch the dial and stay here a while with me! (Woah)

Panic! In-static! Out-manic

Don't you find it all romantic, the way things used to be?

Classic, ecstatic, it's magic

To trip the light fantastic, repeat it after me

This is how it should be, in studio seats

My ego wired in the CRT

We can skip the sign-off, ol' familiar scene, repeating

This is how it should be

One, two, three, sing with me, it's a catchy melody

A. B. C it sounds so sweet when you sing along with me

Four, five, six, check the script? Keep your harmony in key

Ten, nine, eight, for the sake of the way it ought to be

Just another day, throw your cares away

And laugh hand-in-hand with me

Just another day, just another day keeping our company

Who cares what people say? We'll stay another day in revelry, reverie!

Always be together, fair and stormy weather

Never growing older, never growing colder

Always be together, now and for forever

One, two, three, who's the brightest star you see?

It's me

The world you know never seems to take it slow

A tiring pace indeed

So don't delay, I'll be here to save the day

Just please don't touch the dial

Just stay here a while with me (ah)

Panic! In static! Out-manic!

Don't you find it all romantic, the way things used to be?

Classic, ecstatic, it's magic

To trip the light fantastic, repeat it after me

This is how it should be, in studio seats

My ego wired in the CRT

We can skip the sign-off, ol' familiar scene, repeating

This is how it should be

When you go, just don't change the channel

I hope you won't be long

After all, I want to be wanted

Is that so wrong?

Panic! In static! Out-manic!

Don't you find it all romantic, the way things used to be?

Classic, ecstatic, it's magic

To trip the light fantastic, repeat it after me

This is how it should be, in studio seats

My ego wired in the CRT

We can skip the sign-off, ol' familiar scene, repeating

This is how it should be!

This is how it should be, in studio seats

My ego wired in the CRT

We can skip the sign-off, ol' familiar scene, repeating

This is how it should be

(How it should be, this is how it should be)

(This is how it should be, this is how it should be)

This is how it should be
