The Lyrics

This is based on the 1996 film the Cable Guy starring Jim Carrey.
I've come to tune in your tv
The cable guy is what they call me.
You pay me money, i'll plug you in.
But in return, you must be my friend.

Please give me a chance, overtime you'll start to like.
Some say i'm strange but that's the way I was meant to be.
Yes, I think you are a perfect candidate for a friend.
Steven, I think we could make a good pair.

My parents never looked after me.
So they sat me in front of the tv.
And that little kid grew up to be a cable guy.

I have no friends, but it's always been like this.
And I talk in this rather creepy lisp.
I found that sweet spot on your wall.
See Stheven, i'm not so thad.

But now I think we're friends.
Oh Steven, I like you, yesss I do.
You're my friend, aren't you Steven?
I think that this is the start of a wonderful friendship.

My parents never looked after me.
Oh, I spent my life in front of tv.
And I am indeed the cable guy.

People think i'm crazy.
Some think i'm scary.
But why don't they like me?
Why won't their trust me?
I don't think so
I'm just a wind-up toy
A wind-up toy

Chip Douglas is my name.
Some say i'm strange.
Some say i'm insane.
But i'm just lonely.
I've got no friends.
Come on Steven, be my friend.

Come on , please like me.
Why won't you trust me?
I just want to hang out
No big deal, come on Steven.


My parents never looked after me.
Oh, I spent my life in front of tv.
And I am indeed the cable guy.
I'm Chip, the cable guy.
I'm Chip the cable guy.
I'm Chip the cable guy.
I'm Chip the cable guy.
