Sleeping with the TV on




BLUE ELECTRIC SNOW

COVERS THE TV SCREEN

THE MOON ASCENDS SO SLOWLY

MY MIND IS RACING NOW

MY HEART BEATS JUST LIKE A HUMMINGBIRD

TRAPPED INSIDE A CARDBOARD BOX

SOMETHING’S NOT RIGHT

NO EVERYTHING’S WRONG

WHY CANT I SLEEP WITHOUT THE TV ON?


LATELY I WONDER WHY

MAYBE I JUST CAN NOT BE ALONE

AT TIMES IT FEELS IMPOSSIBLE

THE VOICES PUT ME TO SLEEP

BUT I STILL AWAKE IN THE NIGHT

GOD DAMNED COMMERCIALS

BUT I’LL STILL BE LISTENING COME THE BREAK ON DAWN

I JUST CAN NOT SLEEP WITHOUT THE TV ON


I DON’T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT THE BRAND NEW SEASON

JUST GIVE ME TAXI AND ONE MORE RE-RUN

OF MARY TYLER MOORE

I’D TAKE PILLS IF I ONLY HAD THEM

THERE’S NOTHING SADDER THAN THE NATIONAL ANTHEM

AT 4 A.M.


BLUE ELECTRIC SNOW

COVERS THE TV SCREEN…
