Slime Oozing Out of the TV Writers’ Cramp
Slime Oozing Out of the TV Writers’ Cramp

14 lines

I drink coffee
Every morning
Watching the news

Until my eyeballs hurt
And I can’t stand it
Anymore

Wanting to shoot the TV
To put it out of its misery

As I think about that
The old Zappa
the song comes to mind

“I am the slime
Oozing out of the TV set
Can’t look away

Don’t change the dial
Folks look at me go
I am the slime
Oozing out of the TV Set.”
