[Verse]
I woke up last night shaking from a dream
For in that dream, I died
My wife rolled over and told me
That my life would be immortalized
Not in some major motion picture
Or great American novel, you see
No, they're gonna make a TV movie out of me
[Chorus]
Well now, it's one two three you take the money
Yeah it's as easy as A B C
Yeah they're gonna make a TV movie out of me
[Verse]
Well they can change my name or they can leave it
They can change my story too
Or they can make me black or Chinese
And do things that I never did do
They're gonna give my life a whole new ending
And put me in prime time first-run
And when it's over, what I did there will be what I done
[Bridge]
I don't want my name in a history book
Nobody's ever gonna see
No, they're gonna make a TV movie out of me
[Chorus]
Well now, it's one two three you take the money
Yeah it's as easy as A B C
Yeah they're gonna make a TV movie out of me
[Verse]
Well I'm a shoe-in for a sponsor
Goodyear Blimp and radial wheels
Somebody had a meeting somewhere
Somehow somebody made a deal
Well I was one of them kinds of stories
That everybody liked to see
Yeah they're gonna make a TV movie out of me
[Bridge]
Now I don't want no inscription on my gravestone
No long soliloquy
No they're gonna make a TV movie out of me
[Chorus]
Well now, it's one two three you take the money
Yeah it's as easy as A B C
Yeah they're gonna make a TV movie out of me
