And To Think I Saw It On Mulberry Street

Time to Grow Up
 
There's nothing like me on network tv
I'm a show about nothing
unless sucidal tendencies,
God-awful memories,
self-destructive sequences,
and a whipping boy
is what entertains these days
now I must succumb to
what everyonw wants to see
More of everything that happens to me
the material needs a boost
something to kick up the ratings
a little more bounce in the character's step
an episode about self-medication
an all-night binge
booze and barbituates
meth and mutilation
it's a fad that seems to be working
stick to the formula or else
despite past seasons
the show must go on
