The Lyrics

My view on daytime talk show hosts like Jerry Springer and Maury Povich, who high-rated shows continue to produce trash talking, chair smashing circuses to the chagrin of intelligent viewers.
Takin' our time
Crackin' our minds
Try to decide if they're human
Don't like to look
But we are so hooked
By all the fussin' and fumin'

Seems to me
We all like to watch trailer trash
Seems to me
We all hear the potty mouths that talk away.

Loudmouths and tramps
Druggies and scamps
Jerry and Maury exploit them
They all have sinned
The worst ones have came in
We all stare like the Sanhedrin

Seems to me
We can never get enough of
Seems to me
We like to see them throw the chairs that smash away

[guitar solo]

Seems to me
Smut is never really boring
Seems to me
That the tube is full of s***s that walk away

We've got to change the channel
Not watch show and tell
Whenever we laugh at the antics
Hurts when we laugh
To real life gaffes
I'd rather watch reruns of "Mannix"

Seems to me
We all like to watch the white trash
Seems to me
We all hear the potty mouths that talk away.
Yeah, talk away.
Talk away
Talk away

How very accurate. That may be the stations' way of saving money. It is cheaper to produce talk shows than to show re runs and pay royalties. Do one more song about Oprah. She may appear to be generous, but she is so full of herself.

Thanks for the comment, 2Eagle. Unfortunately, I know too many that actually like Oprah, so I may have to do so under an alias, if I do one at all. But thanks for the suggestion. :)
