Telephone calls
Apartment A is at it again
Paper thin walls

She's been sleeping around with other men
And other women
But right about now her head is swimming

He's breakin' up the furniture
Screamin' and a yellin'
About to beat the hell outta her


CHORUS 1
Television ringin' in my ear

I've been thinkin'
Haven't had a break in 20 years
I've been drinkin'


Telephone calls
Insanity is just another ring away

I get the paper
Take a look at it every single day
Another episode

Another life flushed down the camode(spelling?)
We're all carrying such a heavy load
I get no slack

It's breakin' my back

CHORUS 2

Television ringin' in my ear, I've been drinkin'
Haven't had a break in 20 years
I've been thinkin' get me out of here..

'til the coast is clear

Television ringin'in my ear, I've been thinkin'

Haven't had a break in 20 years
I keep drinkin' Television ringin' in my ear,
I keep drinkin' liquor, wine, and beer

I've been thinkin'
Get me out of here
I've been thinkin'..
