I Sat Down by the TV

I sat down by the TV
To watch Days of Our Lives
The world didn't need me
For a while I'm all alone
With psycotic killers
And junkies by  the score
Tomorrow I'll sit right down 
And maybe watch some more.

As the World Turns and goes on
I sit here on the floor
Waiting for the  Guiding Light
There's a knock upon the door
I do not hear it though
In Another World I'm lost
Where rich men Search for Tomorrow
At any and every cost.

Nothing can disturb me
From my daily viewing spot
Ryan Hoped to go to Santa Barbara
But I said I'd rather not.
I told him I could not leave
All my Children in a jam
No matter what he says to me
I'll stay right where I am.

When three o'clock rolls around
I shut off the TV
Since the Edge of Night is off the air
The day's over for me
Don't ask me why I watch them
I've got One Life to Live
And weekday afternoons are mine
And to no one I will give.
