[Verse 1]
I bought a bourgeois house in the Hollywood Hills
With a truckload of hundred thousand dollar bills
[Man came by to hook up my cable TV
We settled in for the night, my baby and me]
[Chorus 1]
We switched round and round till half-past dawn
There was fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
[Verse 2]
Well now, home entertainment was my baby's wish
So I hopped into town for a satellite dish
I tied it to the top of my Japanese car
I came home and I pointed it out into the stars
[Chorus 2]
A message came back from the great beyond
There's fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
[Bridge]
Well, we might'a made some friends with some billionaires
We might'a got all nice and friendly, if we'd made it upstairs
[Chorus 3]
All I got was a note that said, "Bye-bye, John
Our love's fifty-seven channels and nothin' on"
Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
I bought a bourgeois house in the Hollywood Hills
With a truckload of hundred thousand dollar bills
[Man came by to hook up my cable TV
We settled in for the night, my baby and me]
[Chorus 1]
We switched round and round till half-past dawn
There was fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
[Verse 2]
Well now, home entertainment was my baby's wish
So I hopped into town for a satellite dish
I tied it to the top of my Japanese car
I came home and I pointed it out into the stars
[Chorus 2]
A message came back from the great beyond
There's fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
[Bridge]
Well, we might'a made some friends with some billionaires
We might'a got all nice and friendly, if we'd made it upstairs
[Chorus 3]
All I got was a note that said, "Bye-bye, John
Our love's fifty-seven channels and nothin' on"
Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
