"Damn that television...what a bad picture"

"Don't get upset, it's not a major disaster"

"There's nothing on tonight," he said, "I don't know what's the matter!"

"Nothing's ever on," she said, "so...I don't know why you bother."



We've heard this little scene, we've heard it many times

People fighting over little things and wasting precious time

They might be better off...I think...the way it seems to me

Making up their own shows, which might be better than T.V.



(Chorus)

Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations

Bob is on the street today, scouting up locations

They've enlisted all their family

They've enlisted all their friends

It helped save their relationship

And made it work again...



Their show gets real high ratings, they think they have a hit

There might even be a spinoff, but they're not sure 'bout that

If they ever watch T.V. again, it'd be too soon for them

Bob never yells about the picture now, he's having too much fun



(Chorus)

Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations

Bob is on the street today, scouting up locations

They've enlisted all their family

They've enlisted all their friends

It helped save their relationship

And made it work again...



So think about this little scene, apply it to your life

If your work isn't what you love, then something isn't right

Just look at Bob and Judy, they're happy as can be

Inventing situations, putting them on T.V.



(Chorus)

Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations

Bob is on the street today, scouting up locations

They've enlisted all their family

They've enlisted all their friends

It helped save their relationship

And made it work again...
