THE SOAP OPRAH SHOW

He woke up in a place called Eden – She filled his Paradise with weeds
She couldn’t tolerate his drink’in – He couldn’t tolerate her greed

And all at once it shattered – Those magic things that mattered
They put their hearts into their pain
They ripped into each other – ‘cigarettes & aftershave’
They’re gonna settle it, in 15 minutes of fame (4,3,2,1)

Lights, camera, action – first question
Who gets the children – The 6.2 million
It’s all on The Soap Oprah Show

The satisfaction – drives them
She screwed my dentist – ‘He wears my dresses!’ (That’s sick)
It’s all on The Soap Oprah Show (It’s all on The Soap Oprah Show)
Come join The Soap Oprah Show

She fancied filling in the soft spots – He tried to court an angry mob
She felt the jury was impartial – He judged the host by Murphy’s Law

They shared their indiscretions – Fueled by the worst intentions
They wanted Neilson on their side
Two lambs for public slaughter – The applesauce was applause
All the attention, relieved the loss

Let’s take a phone in – next question
Was she abducted – Who’s he corrupted
It’s all on The Soap Oprah Show (Step right up for the show!)

Don’t touch that channel – It’s show & tell
Bribes & corruption – verdict ‘assumption’
It’s all on The Soap Oprah Show
There’s two sides to truth every show

(I wanna know – wants wrong with these kids today?!)

Here Dr. Rhenquest, A specialist
“He’s just a victim” (of love) “She shows the symptoms” (I detect neglected love)
“They’re what I’d both call normal” (Their just a victim of life)
All on The Soap Oprah Show

(Are you still there?)
