TV on a Tiny Screen Songtext
von Ricky Lewis

my family and my old friends
all their bets are placed
when i′ll be coming home
i'm making up a wage
who cares about that anyways?
my baby, she even makes me pay

she′s watching tv on a tiny screen
while i'm working all night for us
and she can't be pleased
but she tries not to think too much
is it ever enough?
now we′re calling it love


all i ever wanted was a bed to sleep
no more modern frivolities
if i take what i was sent for
can i go back to the northeast?
back where marjorie
i know she′s waiting for me

she's watching tv on a tiny screen
while i′m working all night for us
and she can't be pleased
but she′s learned not to think too much
is it ever enough?
now we're calling it love

i document my dreams
on a tiny screen
while i′m working all night for us
and i'm rarely pleased
but i try not to think too much
is it ever enough?
it's never enough
