''Ok, I'm watching''
Ok, I'm watching<br>
You've got my attention<br>
And I've given up all my thoughts<br>
To the God in the box


''You've got my attention''
Cause this is how it should be<br>
This is the world outside my door<br>
And happiness can be bought<br>
Says the God in the box


''And I've given up all my thoughts''
Through the wire in the wall<br>
I am connected to it all<br>
All I needed to be wise<br>
All I needed to survive


''To the God in the box''
Are you anxious? Good<br>
Are you separated? Good<br>
Do you, do you like yourself<br>
Do you wish you were something else<br>
Then it's working well<br>
Cause this is how we talk<br>
And this is what we believe in
I've been desensitized<br>
The humming lights keep me alive<br>
In the God in the<br>
In the God in the box


''Cause this is how it should be''
Through the wire through the wall<br>
I am connected to it all<br>
And all I need to be wise<br>
All I needed to<br>
All I needed to<br>
All I needed to<br>
All I needed to survive

Lyrics

Ok, I'm watching
You've got my attention
And I've given up all my thoughts
To the God in the box

Cause this is how it should be
This is the world outside my door
And happiness can be bought
Says the God in the box

Through the wire in the wall
I am connected to it all
All I needed to be wise
All I needed to survive

Are you anxious? Good
Are you separated? Good
Do you, do you like yourself
Do you wish you were something else
Then it's working well
Cause this is how we talk
And this is what we believe in I've been desensitized
The humming lights keep me alive
In the God in the
In the God in the box

Through the wire through the wall
I am connected to it all
And all I need to be wise
All I needed to
All I needed to
All I needed to
All I needed to survive

I hate the television
I hate the television
I can't think for myself
I can't think for myself
