TV Song

Zita Swoon


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 and cry 
But the movie it ain't as real as I want it to be 
I like to sit and 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 alright 
I like to sit and 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 alright 
You see 
I been waiting 
Here in doubt 
But I don't fear your lightshow 
And I don't fear your eyes 
Not anymore 
Everytime 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 thin 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 alright
