A Normal Person

The normal person only copes
By watching television soaps
And sees revealed on the demon box
His deepest fears and highest hopes.
Unlike you jerks that criticize
Our hero's really very wise -
You'd think he'd never been to school,
He's far too smart, he's far too cool,
And since he doesn't use his brain
He's well-adjusted, not insane!
The Truth for him is plain to see
Shown ex cathedra on T.V.
