  1. Being There

Lyrics

<p>Look at all the beautiful people</p>
<p>Living out their beautiful lives</p>
<p>In beautiful homes and automobiles</p>
<p>Making million dollars deals</p>
<p>Every night on my T.V. screen</p>
<p>It's the next best thing to being there</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Look at all the beautiful husbands</p>
<p>Making love to their beautiful wives</p>
<p>With beautiful children, so cute and smart</p>
<p>I'd turn it off but I don't have the heart</p>
<p>It's such an idyllic scene</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Prime time is the place for me</p>
<p>Yeah, that's the life I seek</p>
<p>Any crisis in the family</p>
<p>Is over, you know</p>
<p>By the end of the show</p>
<p>Or has to get continued next week</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Sit-coms are the place to be</p>
<p>Home of the chosen ones</p>
<p>They may be written most dreadfully</p>
<p>But in the end</p>
<p>They could still ascend</p>
<p>To a nightly after-life in reruns</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Come and see the brilliant policeman</p>
<p>Every danger he somehow survives</p>
<p>Though it seems the end is near</p>
<p>The ratings are high, so never fear</p>
<p>The good guy always wins</p>
<p>The bad pay for their sins</p>
<p>Don't worry 'bout in between</p>
<p>It's the next best thing to being there</p>
