Mike Teavee Lyrics

Danny Elfman Mike Teavee

The most important thing we've learned,
The most important thing we've learned,
So far as children are concerned,
Is never, NEVER, NEVER let
Them near your television set
Or better still, just don't install
The idiotic thing at all.

Never Ever Let Them
Never Ever Let Them
Ooh Ooh
Never Ever Let Them

It rots the senses in the mind!
It kills Imagination dead!
It clogs and clutters up the mind!
It makes a child so dull and blind!
So Dull So Dull !
He can no Longer understand
A fairytale and a fairyland!
A Fairyland a Fairyland!
His brain becomes as soft as cheese!
His powers of thinking rust and freeze!
He cannot think he only sees!

He only Sees
He only Sees

Regarding little Mike Teavee,
We very much regret that we
Shall simply have to wait and see
If we can get him back his height.
But if we can't it serves him right."
