lemmings and tv

when lemmings don't jump off those cliffs
they make their way to me
they line up in the living room
and watch things on tv

they like to watch the shopping shows
the commercials for a cruise
their favorite channel of them all
has got to be fox news

it really is a sight to see
them lit by tv flashes
reports of pain and hurricane
don't even bat their lashes

i told them to get to their cliff
i pleaded, oh, i tried
but the lemmings watched the tv shows
until they all had died
