Lyrics

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 days
Trying to save gas and money
I just sit here wasting away
A coward, a loser, a dummy

The TV is on and you haven't long
Before you're soon to die
Before you lose your mind

You left me in the TV
I wish you had not turned it on
Lazy me, stupid me
Not pleased to be here all alone

Richard works on the trains all days
Trying to save gas and money
I just sit here wasting away
A coward, a loser, a dummy

The TV on, I haven't long
Before I soon to die
Before I lose my mind
With the TV on, I haven't long
With the TV on, I'll soon be gone
