(J. French)

|
It starts up in the morning when the kids are at school
|
Hubby's just forbidden by the home of his poo
|
She walks across the room and she turns on the set
|
Every show is memorized, she can't forget
|
|
Early morning quiz is essential to watch
|
Would I win a car or a bottle of scotch
|
All that she can do is sit home and stare
|
And hope that there she gets a chance to go on the air
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
|
'Cause she's a TV wife with a TV life
|
From early in the morning 'til late at night
|
Her dreams and fears and wishes and her hopes
|
Are all being sued by a handful of soaps
|
For she's a TV wife with a TV life
|
From early in the morning 'til late at night
|
Your dreams are your visions and your lacks of strife
|
But everybody turns you to TV wife, everybody turns you to TV wife
|
TV wife, TV wife
|
By mid-afternoon the shows have progressed
|
And anchors all the characters of who she's obsessed
|
This was dying, that was married, this one gave birth
|
And the hunters nowhere took we found on this planet Earth
|
|
Hubby's home and dinner's on the wine or TV
|
Well, the news is on and it's just too impossible, you see
|
After twenty tumors, fifteen rapes and countless affairs
|
I can't watch the news, it's too gross, she declares
|
|
[REPEAT CHORUS]
|
|
[Solo - Jay Jay]
|
|
A TV wife with a TV life
|
From early in the morning 'til late at night
|
Your dreams and your fears and your wishes and your hopes
|
Are all being sued by a handful of soaps
|
I said a TV wife with a TV life
|
From early in the morning 'til late at night
|
Your dreams are your visions and your lacks of strife
|
Everybody turns you to TV wife, everybody turns you to TV wife
|
TV wife, TV wife
|
|
Well, by mid-afternoon you know the shows have progressed
|
And anchors all the characters with whom you're obsessed
|
This was dying, that was married, this one gave birth
|
And the hunters nowhere took we found on this planet Earth
|
|
Makeups all the cookings on a when it's time for bed
|
The TV guide is alma for but nothing is said
|
Will it be a late night movie starring Greer Garson
|
Or Joey Fisher filling in for airing Johnny Carson
|
|
A TV wife with a TV life
|
From early in the morning 'til late at night
|
Your dreams and your fears and your wishes and your hopes
|
Are all being sued by a handful of soaps
|
For she's a TV wife with a TV life
|
From early in the morning 'til late at night
|
Your dreams are your visions and your lacks of strife
|
And everybody turns you to TV wife, everybody turns you to TV wife
|
TV wife, TV wife, TV wife, TV wife, wooh
|
