The TV is boring me
I wish I hadn't turned it on
Lazy me
Stupid me
Not pleased to be here all alone
Richard works on the trains all day
Trying to save us some money
I just sit here waisting away
A coward
A loser
A dummy
But the tv's on
If you havent long
Before your soon to die
Before you loose your mind
You left me and the tv
I wish you hadn't turned it on
Lazy me
Stupid me
Not pleased to be here all alone
Richard works on the trains all day
Trying to save us some money
I just sit here waisting away
A coward
A loser
A dummy
The tv's on
I haven't long
For I'm soon to die
Or I'll loose my mind
With the tv on
I haven't long
With the tv on
I'll soon by gone
