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'..
