Television Set - Joel Plaskett

Kid were screamin', wife was bitchin'

Just took the keys out of my ignition

Why’d I always feel like a jerk

After a hard day’s work

Might have a couple regrets

Right now I’ll take what I can get

I need a television set to free my mind

Television set to drown ‘em out

Television set, might as well have been blind

There ain’t nothin' better for the down and the out

There ain’t nothin' better for the down and the out

Smoke and mirrors, snakes and ladders

You climb a few.

you slide back down

My head is on the pillow

My heart in the basement

My mind is in the gutter

Girls roll around in the sand

And I got the telephone in my hand

Let us not forget the television set
