Ready for Anything

I forget the difference between being in love

And being familiar with something I hope I'm above

Hear a lie enough and it cuts like the gospel

'Cuz when you're half-awake, no mistake is impossible

I'm a child again, lost and happy in make believe

I'm lazy now, so someone's pretending for me

An untouchable man who holds his hand out to millions

I spend a lot of time watching my TV

I take what they give me and I give them nothing

But I waste a lot of time watching my TV

Got me right where they want me, ready for anything

I forget the difference between being loved

And being a loose pocket, worn-wallet, short-sighted

Friend to lift money off of

Maybe I'm playing their game

so I can have a show where I stick 'em like a pig one day

Tell 'em they can go to hell 'cause they don't know another way

Or maybe I'm here 'cause it's something to do

You know still waters can run shallow too

I could watch myself run dry

So I spend a lot of time watching my TV

I take what they give me and I give them nothing

But I waste a lot of time watching my TV

Got me right where they want me, ready for anything

I forget the difference between being alive

And living through somebody else who's acting out somebody else's life
