Primetime Entertainment Songtext
von PET NEEDS

Harry′s heartbeat hammered in his chest
As the quiz show host turned to him and said
"Remind me of your chosen charity"
"It's suicide prevention
A little independent down in Bristol
They have this helpline, you can call
If you feel like you′re standing on the edge"

"Well, that all sounds commendable", the quiz show host replied
As he tried to not look too bored
"And I presume that winning cash will make an impact?"
"It means everything, and they've already got plans for it all"

Are you feeling brave?
Will you gamble with what you've already won?
Do you feel lucky?
This is primetime entertainment


"We′ve budgeted for this
There′s 50 grand of advertising revenue ready to transfer
Ready to transform lives
But don't be nervous, it′s only a game
It's only other people′s futures you can change"

Harry rose to fame on a wave of vacuous reality TV
It hurt his self-esteem when he read tweets
His chance was now to leave a lasting legacy
To make his daughter proud

Are you feeling brave?
Will you gamble with what you've already won?
Do you feel lucky?
This is primetime entertainment

"No, I don′t mean to rush you mate, but this is live TV
And you're here to add value as today's celebrity
Your agent said you′d gamble if it ever came to this
So what′re you gonna do?"
("I'll take the risk, I′ll take the risk")

Harry pulled over on the M5
Rain hammered on the windscreen as he looked down at his messages
To find one from the charity thanking him for trying
He clocked the helpline at the end and felt his fingers dialling it


I'm not feeling brave
I took a gamble on what I′d already won
I should feel lucky that I work in entertainment
I need to be saved
I'm doing everything I can to just hold on
I should feel something more than this
I′ll take the risk

(There's budget for this)
(There's budget for this)
(There′s budget for this) this is primetime entertainment
(There′s budget for this)
(There's budget for this)
(There′s budget for this) I'll take the risk

(There′s budget for this)
(There's budget for this)
(There′s budget for this) this is primetime entertainment
(There's budget for this)
(There's budget for this)
(There′s budget for this) I′ll take the risk
