beyond the TV set

I spend the day online
I have nothing to do
so I spend each day obsessed by
what's happening in the news
and what's happening in the news
give you pause to wonder
I look at my country
and I see it's going under

so I don't make nothing happen
I just stay well-informed
but I never step out of place
I belong in the norm
but that kind of normal does nothing
no problem does it solved
but it still don't matter to me
I'd rather not get involved

          I keep waiting for good news to happen
          but it hasn't happened yet
          at least in the world that one sees
          beyond the TV set
