Steve Taylor - Dream in Black and White lyrics

Suburban sun is slowly dying Suburban moon, It never lives The wife just nods when you get home now You stay together for the kids Six o'clock You watch the headlines By half past ten Your eyes are glued You spent the daylight making deadlines Tonight the TV is making you You may watch the world in color In the corner burning bright You may watch the world in color But you dream in black and white The shadows flicker across your face now The image sinks inside your brain With just a few more magic dollars You could make yourself a name Sporty cars surround your castle With a roof antenna reaching to the sky A commercial message for the good life Is just a simulated lie You may watch the world in color Your only friend when times are tight You may watch the world in color But you dream in black and white
