lyrics
TV, I love you, it's but discreet
you told me to fear the blacks living up the street
illegals want our jobs, no frontin' dude
And those are the same jobs you said I don't wanna do
People said your racist, I said your christian
They said you made me racist, and I don't listen
This fake news, its real, dude, it's gotta be true
FOX told me so, shit, it gotta be true
I'm gonna kiss your antenna
pretend that there is no agenda
I know what I know from you
you lie to me, and I can grow from you
its all small words, big captions
Rumors, stiff laughin
Thru out it all ,you carried me
When I fell asleep, you married me
TV TV TV I Love You(3x)
You know that, if I could, that I would just fuck you
