I found true love in a diamond commercial
See my purchasing power is my penchant for pearls
And it all sort of seemed like an alternate world
But if I’m that family man I’ll keep playing the role
I found true happiness in a car commercial
See my thrills get their fill from the wheel’s whirl
And it sort of hurts my head that it’s running on oil
But if I’m that faceless driver I’ll keep playing the role
I found true wisdom in a televangelist’s commercial
See it’s one less soul to place on Satan’s infinite total
And it sort of pangs my heart ‘bout how it all takes a toll
But if I’m that angel laughing I’ll keep playing the role
And if I’m that family man I’ll keep playing the role
And if I’m that faceless driver I’ll keep playing the role
And if I’m that angel laughing I’ll keep playing the role
I’ll keep playing the role
I’ll keep playing the role
