China Olympics 2008, now Vancouver 2010 )

( HAVE YOU BEEN )
OVER-ATHENATED ?
Copyright © 2004 - MickTerry.com

Stumbling through the kitchen
with bleary, blood-shot eyes,
flip on the television
to an ad that's Olympic-sized.
Still another and another
in between a few tired games
and I really start to wonder
if I'll ever be the same.

    HAVE YOU BEEN OVER-ATHENATED?
    Have you really had enough
    of all the hype and all the ads
    and commercial sort of stuff?
    HAVE YOU BEEN OVER-ATHENATED?
    Had your fill of what you seek
    to the point where you barely could care less
    the whole stadium's doing it Greek?

Don't mean to be fuming:
I've been here so much before.
Not much point in viewing:
'Xcuse me if I start to snore.
Maybe it's been the corruption
that's occurred the past few years.
Maybe it's been the discussion
of our terroristic fears.

    CHORUS

        There's commentary on the players.
        There's commentary on the ads.
        There's commentary on the commentators'
        breakfast they just had.
        There's commentary on the customs.
        There's commentary on each coach.
        There's commentary on each muscle moved,
        each attack and each approach.

Orange juice and a muffin.
Where the hell is that remote?
Surfing through the stations,
stuffed with atheletic bloat.
  (sic)
But I used to have an int'rest
in the sports that I would see.
All the nearly empty seating:
could it be it's not just me?

    CHORUS
