Televised

In this endless thirst we go from first to worst and get

Lost in the mud and fall down with a thud at this point

We feel “why not sign the deal” and give up privacy and

Give up what is me

And when it’s not enough

And you can’t fill your cup-this boring humdrum

Life with an average looking wife

The shiny things we love beneath the flashing bulbs

They have their steely hold but always leave you cold

Thanks for sharing that with us

Your divorce has been televised

Your intercourse has been televised

You’re ratings gold

You have been sold

Your life isn’t yours see dotted line

To be sure when you’re televised

Par for the course you will be despised-the cannon fodder of checkout lines

This life isn’t real you knew the deal

And when the novelty has worn off all its sheen

And when the crowd’s moved on and you’re on your way down

So you think you’ll adjust to a life without remorse

You paid a price to find attention spans are short

Thanks for sharing that with us

Every vice has been televised your weeping eyes

They’ve been televised

Where have they gone?

And when will they wonder where you’ve gone?

Where are they now? Remember them?

Where have they gone? Where will you be?

Re-sign your deal can’t change your mind
