Peter Combe - Video Lyrics

Lyrics

One day my dad said why don't you hire a
Video video video video
Then you can sit and watch a good movie
Video video video video
So off to the shop to see what they've got
I ran round the block I checked out the lot
Then hired a video video video video.

Every night then I sat and watched that
Video video video video
And one day I watched it right up till midnight
Video video video video
My teacher said that, my teacher said that
My teacher said that, my teacher said you watch
Too much video video video video.

'Cos every day at school I fell asleep
Teacher said my friend you're looking bad
Switch it off switch it off
Go to bed go to bed
Video take it back, back to the shop.

So on a Wednesday I took it back that
Video video video video
I was so good and had early nights no
Video video video video
My teacher told me, my teacher told me
My teacher told me, my teacher said that you
Don't need video video video video.

Too much TV bad for children's brains
Too much TV can drive you insane
Ride a bike ride a bike
Climb a tree climb a tree
Exercise exercise that's what you need.

Yes yes you're right that's just what I need – o
Exercise yes that's just what I need - o
Yes yes you're right that's just what I need – o
Exercise yes that's just what I need - o
Yes yes you're right that's just what I need – o
Exercise yes that's just what I need – but
Just to relax maybe I'll hire a video.
