Biografia:
Timbuk 3 foi uma banda americana de post-punk formada em Madison, Wisconsin em 1984 pelo casal Pat MacDonald e Barbara K. MacDonald.
No meio dos anos 80, mais precisamente em 1986, o mundo pop foi sacudido por uma canção diferente, que misturava um country com um ritmo pré-gravado e um casal totalmente diferente, munidos de violões cantando "o futuro é tão brilhante que preciso usar óculos escuros". E se a música era estranha, o casal com seu visual hippie não deixava nada a desejar.

Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
An easy progression is repeated through the whole song. Nice.
Bm A G
Presidential elections are planned distractions
A Bm
To divert attention from the action behind the scenes
Bm A
like a game of chess when the house is a mess
G
Or a petty money squabble when your marriage is in trouble
A Bm
Or a football game when there's rioting in the streets
Chorus:
Bm A G
It's just another movie, another song and dance
A Bm
Another poor sucker who never had a chance
Bm A G
It's just another captain going down with his ship
A Bm
Just another jerk, taking pride in his work
Bm A G
I was a poor magician; I could never understand
A Bm
You can't make tears disappear through sleight of hand
Bm A G
From the bottom of my heart -- off the top of my head
A Bm
Words were pulled like rabbits from a hat but nothing was said
Chorus
Bm A G
Now my freedom's bought and paid for -- it lights up my living room
A Bm
I got nothing more to prove; I've got no reason to move
Bm A G
And when I'm tired of the program -- when it's taken it's toll
A Bm
I can press a button, change the channel by remote control
Chorus + repeat last line.
