TV dinners…there's nothin' else to eat
TV dinners…they really can't be beat
I like 'em frozen, but you understand
I throw 'em in and 'wave 'em and I'm a brand new man

Oh, yeah…

TV dinners…they're goin' to my head
TV dinners…my skin is turning red
Twenty-year-old turkey in a thirty-year-old tin
I can't wait 'til tomorrow to thaw one out again

Oh, yeah…

In the night, oh my…
And they sure look fine…

TV dinners…feelin' kinda rough
TV dinners…this one's kinda tough
I like the enchiladas and the teriyaki, too
I even like the chicken…if the sauce is not too blue

In the night, oh, my
And they sure look fine…

Robert Allen Palmer (19 January 1949 – 26 September 2003) was an English singer-songwriter[1] and musician. He was known for his distinctive soulful voice, eclectic mix of musical styles on his albums, combining soul, jazz, rock, pop, reggae and blues and sartorial acumen. He found success both in his solo career and with the Power Station, and had Top 10 songs in both the UK and the US.

His iconic music videos directed by British fashion photographer Terence Donovan for the hits “Addicted to Love” and “Simply Irresistible” featured identically dressed dancing women with pale faces, dark eye makeup and bright red lipstick, which resembled the women in the art of Patrick Nagel, an artist popular in the 1980s. Palmer’s involvement in the music industry commenced in the 1960s, covered four decades and included a spell with Vinegar Joe.
