lyrics

Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on, mass communication junkie
Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on, turn it on, mass communication junkie
All you need is your backside
Get your kicks for free
On cable T
Veto is your right you can
But your life hangs by the anchorman

Do you ever look at the world outside you
Your soap-opera visions and Phil Donahue
The game-show man and the Hollywood hero
I wonder if that’s all you know…

Stop, don’t look, don’t listen
Do you want to be
A p-o-t-a-t-o-e
Stop, don’t look, don’t listen
Do you want to be
A p-o-t-a-t-o-e
Watch the late o’clock news if you must
There’s no better cure
Just stop, don’t look, don’t listen

Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off, turn it off, Babe-watch is getting to moi
All that surfing is not much good
All you get is Oprah
And even if you go desi
There’s not that much fun on DD

Do you ever look at the world outside you
Your soap-opera visions and Phil Donahue
The game-show man and the Hollywood hero
I wonder if that’s all you know…

Stop, don’t look, don’t listen
Do you want to be
A p-o-t-a-t-o-e
Stop, don’t look, don’t listen
Do you want to be
A p-o-t-a-t-o-e
Watch the late o’clock news if you must
There’s no better cure

Invisibility is yours, you can get no better than a camera
You’ve been trying all your life, but you can get no better than a camera…

Thermal And A Quarter Bengaluru, India

"Thermal And A Quarter (TAAQ) is on the vanguard of the Indian Rock Scene" - NPR, USA

Founded in 1996, TAAQ is an eclectic, irreverent (but usually relevant) band that considers itself and its music as bastard children of the world. At home everywhere, belonging nowhere. Always true, tight, intense and ready to laugh.
