I'm couch potatoe, I'm a couch potatoe
Pack of smokes and a dozen beer
Remote control, baby I'm in gear
When that test pattern comes I go to bed
Now I can sleep cause that tone's in my head
You know it wasn't always this way
Baby, you sentenced me,
The day you went away
To be a couch potatoe, couch potatoe
Sit around like a fixed tom-cat
Watchin' sponge bob and gettin' fat
You used to be my only wish
Now you've been replaced by a satellite dish
Broadcasting, to all couch potatoes
Plug your ears all you sun ripened tomatoes
Don't need to feel the sun on my back
I'm right at home in my burlap sack
Huh, huh SOLO
Broadcasting, to all couch potatoes
Plug your ears all you sun ripened tomatoes
Don't need to feel the sun on my back
I'm right at home in my burlap sack
I'm couch potatoe, I'm a couch potatoe
Don't need to see no light of day
Get my tan from a cathode ray
Every now and then I get in my car
Get more tapes for my VCR
You know it wasn't always this way
Baby, you sentenced me,
The day you went away
To be a couch potatoe, couch potatoe
When the TV's off there ain't nothin' to do
Except stare at the walls and think of you
Won't you come over and stay with me?
Turn me on baby I'll turn off my TV
C-C-C-Couch potatoe, etc
