Story Behind the Song
Lyrics
On the couch for the daily soaps,
Half the nation just sat like dopes,
Are we really that dull.
Staring at the holy shrine,
In the corner that box divine,
They say looks are deceiving.
Chorus:
So more fool you, if you’ve got nothing better to do,
Than hang around just sitting there with you’re TV dinner stare.
All the same with their makeup on,
Not a blemish, not even one,
Familiar faces, on our TV.
They read the gospel from their auto cues,
The stars of chat shows and the evening news,
We’d be lost now without them.
Chorus
It gives you something to do at night,
You don’t just get to drink and fight,
You can stare at your TV.
Wit and repartee in all our homes,
Every parlour has its comic clones,
Are we really that sad.
Chorus:
So more fool me, cause I’ve got nothing better to do,
Than hang around just sitting there with my TV dinner stare.
