So life is different than what they show us on TV
Do dreams come true for everyone
Or just for Barbie and I've been waiting here so very patiently
Well it's been so long
It's been too long
I wonder what's wrong with me
I wanna know how to live the real world
I wanna know cause I'm a real live girl

(CHORUS)
I wanna live in TV land with Mr. T and the A-team
My problem they could solve before the end of the show
I wanna live in TV Land where they're so thin and pretty
They must be nice people cause they're on 90210 in TV land
I wish I looked like all the nice actors on TV
Sometimes you've got to choose between real and plastic surgery
Just like the people on the television screen
Barbie's not a role model
She's only make believe
I wanna know how to live the real world
I wanna know cause I'm a real live girl

(CHORUS2)
I wanna live in TV land and be on of Charlie's angels
It must be fun to fight crime and have new clothes for every show
I wanna live in TV land like Samantha or Dream of Jeannie
My problems could solve by the wrinkling of my nose in TV land
I wanna live in TV land I wanna live in TV land
We can change the world through the TV show
All kinds of people like we have in the real world
I wanna live in the TV land
Make it safe to be ordinary gonna do my own show
It's about us real live girls in TV land
