When I was a kid
I used to fake sick
Luckily, my mom and dad were
Pretty easy to trick
I was biding my time
Until the house was all mine
To do the one thing I really wanted to
Which was watching daytime TV
While there's no one home to watch me
I'm hanging out with Maury
He's doing a paternity test
Are you the father? Well, it's anybody's guess
And give me Jerry Springer
Judge Joe Brown, Judge Judy, and a TV dinner
I guess the best things in life come free
Like watching daytime TV
When I was a kid
The world was a mystery
There were so many things that
Just didn't make sense to me
And the way to find out
What all the fuss was about
And to satisfy my healthy curiosity
Was by watching daytime TV
While there's no one home to watch me
I'm hanging out with Maury
He's doing a paternity test
Are you the father? Well, it's anybody's guess
And give me Jerry Springer
Judge Joe Brown, Judge Judy, and a TV dinner
I guess the best things in life come free
Like watching daytime TV
There's no one home to watch me
There's no one home to stop me
From hanging out with Maury
I'm hanging out with Genevieve
There's no one home to watch me
There's no one home to stop me
From hanging out with Maury
I'm hanging out
