Comic Life

You push away the night turn on the TV light Drink coffee and put on a shirt You join the peoples' cries The entertainment starts You laugh, you scream, you get violent And everything's going on outside Everything's going on outside And there ain't much to do But try to get inside Everything's going on outside Everything's going on outside You take your tiny pills and Live your comic life You drink and take a bath Have sex in someone's house You leave, go to work, get your head down Your trivial mind gets filled With chocolate advert spiel What a funny, decrepit little world And everything's going on outside Everything's going on outside And there ain't much to do But try to get inside Everything's going on outside Everything's going on outside You take your tiny pills and Live your comic life If you don't go out today How are you meant to make your wise cracks Kid? (Wise cracks, kid) If you don't go out today How are you meant to write your sad songs? Well, everything's going on outside Everything's going on outside You read your self help books And nurse your second pint Everything's going on outside Everything's going on outside You take your tiny pills and Live your comic life I'll just take my tiny pills And live my comic life
