Lyrics

I turn off the phones
And I isolate
I stay home alone
I stay up too late
I watch all the re-runs
Of my favorite shows
I don’t really think about
The good times I’ll never know
It’s too late to begin, it’s too late to win
It’s not fair, it’s too hard, I never could start
I always start strong, I finish weak
What’s on TV? What’s there to eat?

I see the celebrities
And the lives that they lead
You’d think with all that money
They’d give some to me

I went to rob the liquor store
But they sent me to jail
Compared to all the movie stars
I’m sure my troubles seem pale
It’s too late to begin, it’s too late to win
It’s not fair, it’s too hard, I never could start
I always start strong, I finish weak
What’s on TV? What’s there to eat?

If life is a sideshow
For the small and the weak
Then who is the barker
For those who won’t speak?
We tally our losses
We fake a few wins
But some would rather fall and freeze on their knees
Than have to yearn and burn again
It’s too late to begin, it’s too late to win
It’s not fair, it’s too hard, I never could start
I always start strong, I finish weak
What’s on TV? What’s there to eat?
