She sits here drinking
  What does the fiction represent?
  The TV Scandal
  Can make her break out in a sweat
  She watches it to make her feel part
  Of something she never was
  She sings a song
  That her father whistled while he worked
    It helps her relax
  A mild depressant keeps her down
  And she weeps smiling
  The radio bleeds that happy sound
  The music nullifies her fears
  With words to that effect
  She s happy now, she thinks
  That really nothing could go wrong
    All this waiting all for nothing
  Routine living - Rooms to live in
  Routine living - Merely wasting away
    This life she's living
  Is an extension of our guilt
  The four-walled conscience
  Imposed by those who never felt
  The pain the tedious drudgery
  Boredom (Relax!) - It s lonely
  And it s not right
  That this way of life should go on
