Short Stack - Television Lyrics






I hate this town, I'm breaking out
I hope you don't forget me
But you're with him now, so watch me drown
In hopes you don't regret me
Girl this game is done 'cause I'm the one
You're thinking of alone
So I climbed your roof and slipped into
Your perfect skin and bones

And then she said...
Close your eyes and let's pretend there's
Nothing good on television
Every time you say my name
It brings me back to life

Oh! There's nothing good on
My, my television
My, my, my, television
My, my, television
Oh! there's nothing good on
My, my television
My, my, my, my television
My, my television

And then she said to me there's something right
With this tonight, our love is an illusion
But the night is young, we load our guns
And dream of evolution
While the city sleeps we rule the streets
Our fingers intertwined
And as you melt, I lost myself
In your kaleidoscope eyes

And can you just...
Close your eyes and let's pretend there's
Nothing good on television
Every time you say my name it
Brings me back to life

Oh! There's nothing good on
My, my television
My, my, my television
My, my, television
Oh! there's nothing good on
My, my television
My, my, my television
My, my television

(She says she's coming home tonight)

She says she's coming home tonight

Close your eyes and let's pretend there's
Nothing good on television
(She says she's coming home tonight)
Every time you say my name it
Brings me back to life

Oh! There's nothing good on
My, my television
My, my, my television
My, my, television
Oh! there's nothing good on
My, my television
My, my, my television
My, my television
(She says she's coming home tonight)

Close your eyes and let's pretend there's
Nothing good on television
Every time you say my name it
Brings me back to life
(She says she's coming home tonight)

Close your eyes and let's pretend there's
(My, my television, my, my, my television)
Nothing good on television
(My, my television, my, my, my television)
Every time you say my name it
(My, my television, my, my, my television)
Brings me back to life

Short Stack Television Comments
  1. E.... L....

    The last big hit of Short Stack ... *sighs* they looked a lot more genuine in this music video . I always loved these guys , their lyrics are the best I've seen from an aussie pop punk band , or aussie band in general . The worst thing I can say about them is they looked a bit poser-esque with their old emo look , but its fine now looking back at it , they dressed like posers but their music didn't reflect that at all . Hope they do well nowadays in retirement .

  2. B.... ....

    Man they need to come back, Pop Punk isnt dead, there's still die hards like myself who listen to Pop Punk and nothing else.

  3. B.... ....

    Fuck me dude. This video came out 4 and a half years ago. Seemed like it’s only been like two years.... where does time go? This is depressing.

  4. E.... P....

    i just realised i sound hella desperate but tbh im a little tipsy and nostlagic af

  5. E.... P....

    i want to see you again so bad, i finally have gotten over my concert anxiety and would give anything to hang with you guys post show

  6. B.... C....

    This is my absolute favourite short stack song, I listen to it all the time, please make more pop punk music guys!! Huge fan

  10. F.... C....

    i just found this band by serching famous people with my birthday and found shaun i like this band

  11. B.... T....

    Bit disappointed with homecoming (album the song was alright) I really wanted television on it for starters or songs that sound similar but instead got re-releases and pop wannabe songs, still like the band though just let down after art van-delay and homecoming.
    Stack is the new black still makes me happy

  12. M.... G....

    This music video kinda reminds me of princess, with the black and white picture and other things. Is it just me or does anyone else think this?

  13. C.... ....

    Every day that I see my Gran, she says there's never anything on the TV.

    Makes me wanna scream this song at her

  14. B.... G....

    you guys look so much younger here than today :')

  15. a.... ....

  16. T.... B....

    i met these amazing motherfuckers in Castle Hill, i was so happy. i had been in love with these guys since 2009-10 when i saw them at the Sydney Opera House in April '10, and finally being able to meet them was a blessing, it really was :')

  22. s.... ....

    "lets pretend there's nothing good on television"

  26. R.... R....

    I was 12 back in 2009 when I went to my very first concert on the SITNB tour and I was legit was obsessed with Short Stack after that point. What was even crazier to me was that they went to school in my area and I knew people they knew. Nothing helps deepen a pre-teen's obsession like having a very probable chance of bumping into their first band obsession, haha.
    Wouldn't complain about going to a show if they swing by Newcastle when Homecoming drops. Love this song.

  27. M.... S....

    It's a good single, I'm glad these guys are making a comeback. Not so much with the production value of this video though.

    M.... S....

    It was shot by Andy before they resigned to a record label, so it's not bad considering. Haha :P

    M.... S....

    Ah, if that's the case then WOW xD

  28. S.... L....
