about
A song about longing for your favorite TV character, so much that you could let your lips touch the pixels. Unrequited love in the trap of teenage fandom, a TV Kiss.
Performed live at DragonCon 2013.

lyrics
I stayed home from school the other day
So I could be alone with you
I couldn't think of any other way
to keep other boys from watching too
Camera man, don't get the angles wrong
I'm waiting for my girl to come onscreen
I've waited for this moment oh so long
You don't know how hard it's been
I waited all afternoon for this
Oh don't let me down, my TV Kiss
This is a moment I don't want to miss
Oh Come to me my TV Kiss
lay my lips on the static
This is the way it always happens
My TV dreams come so alive
when your pixels meet my saliva
I brush away your hair
but only push through the air
It's just like in my dreams
but you're so much flatter than it seems
I waited all afternoon for this
Oh don't let me down, my TV Kiss
This is a moment I don't want to miss
Oh Come to me my TV Kiss
I'm waitin for deanna troy
She sucked from my life all the joy
I can't be with any other chick
Who isn't brilliant and empathic
She comes on screen
With her boyfriend from LA
I want him to put on a red shirt
And just go away
I waited all afternoon for this
Oh don't let me down, my TV Kiss
This is a moment I don't want to miss
Oh Come to me my TV Kiss
So I could be alone with you
I couldn't think of any other way
to keep other boys from watching too
Camera man, don't get the angles wrong
I'm waiting for my girl to come onscreen
I've waited for this moment oh so long
You don't know how hard it's been
I waited all afternoon for this
Oh don't let me down, my TV Kiss
This is a moment I don't want to miss
Oh Come to me my TV Kiss
lay my lips on the static
This is the way it always happens
My TV dreams come so alive
when your pixels meet my saliva
I brush away your hair
but only push through the air
It's just like in my dreams
but you're so much flatter than it seems
I waited all afternoon for this
Oh don't let me down, my TV Kiss
This is a moment I don't want to miss
Oh Come to me my TV Kiss
I'm waitin for deanna troy
She sucked from my life all the joy
I can't be with any other chick
Who isn't brilliant and empathic
She comes on screen
With her boyfriend from LA
I want him to put on a red shirt
And just go away
I waited all afternoon for this
Oh don't let me down, my TV Kiss
This is a moment I don't want to miss
Oh Come to me my TV Kiss
