Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Someone here isn't telling the truth
To figure that out doesn't take a sleuth
Look closely, the baby just cut his first tooth
The elders are so fascinated by youth
[Verse 2]
What is that boiling? Maybe it's beef
Looks like some ne'er-do-well tracked in a leaf
The dog's furry face is covered in grief
Completely swept up in a nonsense motif
[PreChorus]
Struggling to make up a meaningful night
The room has gone dark, the screen has gone white
[Chorus]
Voyeur of boredom, I don't get this stuff
Voyeur of boredom, I can't get enough
Fighting the need to sleep
It's so hypnotizingly cheap
I'm a voyeur, a voyeur of boredom in deep
[Verse 3]
Will Mitzi give up and just marry Jim
Or change her mind, and go off with Tim?
Hey look, the road's blocked by a falling limb
Hey, my eyebrows could make use of an easy trim
[Verse 4]
Just think about all of this bullshit I've learned
Tim hit the road, and poor Mitzi got burned
There's something 'bout something that I could've earned
While channel after channel after channel is turned
[PreChorus]
Struggling to make up a meaningful night
The room has gone dark, the screen has gone white
[Chorus]
Voyeur of boredom, I don't get this stuff
Voyeur of boredom, I can't get enough
Fighting the need to sleep
It's so hypnotizingly cheap
I'm a voyeur, a voyeur of boredom in deep
[Outro]
I'm a voyeur, a voyeur of boredom in deep
