The Green on the Screen by Tangerine Rye Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The green on the screen
And the fools on the scene
They stir up a little fuss
They raise some issues here
That mama can't relate
The kids are all grown
With a little hate
Ain't no doctor help us
With our aching hearts
So we'll shell a tenner out for brunch
A house on the hill
No, it won't do us much
Can't seem to think why you hold a grudge
[Chorus]
I can't seem to answer why
I'll hold on for the ride today
Bleeding time
And swiping through
The green on the screen
Again
[Verse 2]
Keen to preserve
Yet not so much to conserve
We tend to shout a little too much
I tend to be reserved
And I have no words
And if it ain't my subject to touch
[Chorus]
I can't seem to answer why
I'll hold on for the ride today
Bleeding time
And swiping through
The green on the screen
Again
[Verse 3]
The green on the screen
And the fools on the scene
They stir up a little fuss
They raise some issues here
That papa can't relate
The kids are all grown
With a little hate
[Chorus]
I can't seem to answer why
I'll hold on for the ride today
Bleeding time
And swiping through
The green on the screen
Again
The green on the screen
And the fools on the scene
They stir up a little fuss
They raise some issues here
That mama can't relate
The kids are all grown
With a little hate
Ain't no doctor help us
With our aching hearts
So we'll shell a tenner out for brunch
A house on the hill
No, it won't do us much
Can't seem to think why you hold a grudge
[Chorus]
I can't seem to answer why
I'll hold on for the ride today
Bleeding time
And swiping through
The green on the screen
Again
[Verse 2]
Keen to preserve
Yet not so much to conserve
We tend to shout a little too much
I tend to be reserved
And I have no words
And if it ain't my subject to touch
[Chorus]
I can't seem to answer why
I'll hold on for the ride today
Bleeding time
And swiping through
The green on the screen
Again
[Verse 3]
The green on the screen
And the fools on the scene
They stir up a little fuss
They raise some issues here
That papa can't relate
The kids are all grown
With a little hate
[Chorus]
I can't seem to answer why
I'll hold on for the ride today
Bleeding time
And swiping through
The green on the screen
Again
