TV Song (MoonDog Jr.)

by



Don’t lay it on me, on me
Don’t you leave me here

I like to sit and cry in front of my tv
I like to think of words to scream
About all it is I am and all it is I wanna be
Over and over
I laugh & cry
But the movie it ain’t as real as I want it to be
I like to sit & cry over and over again
And the tears they please me
They are all I need to know
As I zap from show to show
And a man on a bike comes on
He says:
“Man, my wheels don’t turn if the road don’t feel right”
I say: ”I’ll stand still
And wait for the skies to burn tonight”
So I can
Bury you; it’s all I can do
So you won’t come through
At least for a little while
My life will be all right

I like to sit & watch it all I can
Crying like a man
And leave it for another day
I’ll stay here in my precious cage
And lose it while I can
Cut it off by minute roots
And stick it in the ground
And bury you, it’s-a all I can do
So you won’t come through
At least for a little while
My life will be all right

You see
I been waiting
Here in doubt
But I don’t fear your lightshow
And I don’t fear your eyes
Not anymore
Every time we score

I like to sit and cry
And on that score
I think I’ll cry a little more
I think I’ll keep the tv on
I think I’ll cry for all night long
I’m sure that it won’t do me no good
No, but it will
Shake you off of me Momma
And cut you loose from me girl
It means the world to
Bury you, it’s-a all I can do
So you won’t come through
At least for a little while
My life will be all right
