(most of the lyrics from) FOUND A JOB - Talking Heads, from the album "More Songs About Buildings and Food" - 1978

Damn that television ... what a bad picture!
Don't get upset, it's not a major disaster.
There's nothing on tonight, he said, I don't know
What's the matter!
Nothing's ever on, she said, so ... I don't know
Why you bother.

We've heard this little scene, we've heard it many times.
People fighting over little things and wasting precious time.
They might be better off ... I think ... the way it seems to me.
Making up their own shows, which might be better than t.v.

(chorus)

Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations.
Bob is on the street today, scouting up locations.
They've enlisted all their family.
They've enlisted all their friends.
It helped saved their relationship,
And made it work again ...

Their show gets real high ratings, they think they have a hit.
There might even be a spinoff, but theyre not sure bout that.
If they ever watch t.v. again, it'd be too soon for them.
Bob never yells about the picture now, he's having
Too much fun
