OWN TV or O.W.N. TV, or variations thereof, may refer to:
Ownership of property may be private, collective, or common and the property may be objects, land/real estate or intellectual property. Determining ownership in law involves determining who has certain rights and duties over the property. These rights and duties, sometimes called a 'bundle of rights', can be separated and held by different parties.
The question of ownership reaches back to the ancient philosophers, Plato and Aristotle, who held different opinions on the subject. Plato (428/427BC-348/347BC) thought private property created divisive inequalities, while Aristotle (384BC-322BC) thought private property enabled people to receive the full benefit of their labor. Private property also circumvents what is now referred to as the “tragedy of the commons” problem, where people tend to degrade common property more than they do private property. While Aristotle justified the existence of private ownership, he left open questions of (1) how to allocate property between what is private and common and (2) how to allocate the private property within society.
Oprah Winfrey (born Orpah Gail Winfrey; January 29, 1954) is an American media proprietor, talk show host, actress, producer, and philanthropist. Winfrey is best known for her self-titled, multi-award-winning talk show, which has become the highest-rated program of its kind in history and was nationally syndicated from 1986 to 2011. She has been ranked the richest African-American of the 20th century, the greatest black philanthropist in American history, and was for a time the world's only black billionaire. She is also, according to some assessments, the most influential woman in the world.
Winfrey was born into poverty in rural Mississippi to a teenage single mother and later raised in an inner-city Milwaukee neighborhood. She experienced considerable hardship during her childhood, claiming to be raped at age nine and becoming pregnant at 14; her son died in infancy. Sent to live with the man she calls her father, a barber in Tennessee, Winfrey landed a job in radio while still in high school and began co-anchoring the local evening news at the age of 19. Her emotional ad-lib delivery eventually got her transferred to the daytime-talk-show arena, and after boosting a third-rated local Chicago talk show to first place, she launched her own production company and became internationally syndicated.

We chased each other wet and soggy like a crashing wave
Grey and filthy in the gutter breaking all over the place
Down the ave. in the pouring rain
Saying, even more! even more!
At the reservoir you impaled your wrist
On razor wire climbing the fence
I cut my thumb trying to climb into the blind-deaf school
We were a mess, bloody and half undressed
In the shelter of the shadows of the frisbie street creek
A canopy of trees and leaves
With us hidden underneath
Time rolls over me
Time rushes over me
Why try to run so fast
It still passes you by
I had some friends, a psychotic couple
They had a room in a residential hotel
They fought in the bed
While we fucked on the floor
We'd only slept an hour together when
The manager set the place ablaze
I awoke to the smoke and flames
and had to kick down the door
Time rolls over me
Time rushes over me
Why try to run so fast
It still passes you by
Why talk about what could have been
Why walk around lost reliving moments
Why walk around at all
The power's on with batteries, yet we're stuck on channel four.
But it's interesting today.
Press rewind, go back in time, to a place that you want more.
Jeopardy is "a-okay."
Go on and press the mute.
Go on, yeah.
'Cause it's so fake it seems, this life we lead, is it just me? No.
So press the pause for me, so I am screened on TV.
Remote controls I wish I had, one that's burned into my arm.
I like to stare all day.
Plastic holes and stereos, my brain is always on alarm.
It's a righteous day today.
Go on and press eject.
Go on, yeah.
But it's just memories, that's why we bleed, this "herd of sheep."
In your houses late at night
Sit down cosy, kill that light
Watch a movie, watch a fight
Feeling safe as well you might
When you dream in black and white
It can only happen
On TV, on TV
In the bathroom in your bed
Wall to wall we're in your head Finger on remote control
We are wired to your soul
We got idols we got dreams
It can only happen
On TV
On TV
On TV
We got idols we got dreams
Keep your eyes fixed on the screen
Squeeze your life there in between
On TV
On TV
On TV, TV, TV
Ecstasy for you and me
Here at home on your TV
TV TV TV
Turning up the volume 'cos it's blowing up your head
Look at your eyes they're going red
Turn it on!
Turn it off!
Turn it on!
