The Lyrics

DKTOS? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HY0FWwEVVE4
Hey
Take a look
Come and see the shows on air
Hey
Take a look
You'll just sit and stare
They
Show it all
They've gone off the deep end now
They're
Off the wall
I'm forever there

Like a dream, but it's real
Midget clowns with sex appeal
Asking hookers "Are those real?"
Channel two

It's a dream gone astray
Amputees that dance ballet
Nude skydiving every day
You know it's channel two

Channel two

You
You just gasp
Parents pimping their daughters
You
You're aghast
Watch that squirrel get maimed
You
Go berserk
See the postal clerks mate goats
You
You concede
That you can't turn away

Like a dream, but it's real
See the drag queens shake and squeal
Juggling electric eels
Channel two

It's a dream gone astray
On the cooking show today
Roadkill chefs with skunk souffle
You know it's channel two

Just for you

It's extreme, no surprise, rots your brain
But it seems got your eyes locked in place

You know it's channel two

Wait
Live at eight
It's the game they all talk of
Play
Play the game
Play "Let's shave a bear"

Hey
That's your wife
On "Who's Chugging the Most Beer?"
Hey
It's your life
You now just sit and stare

Like a dream, but it's real
It's so twisted it's surreal
This sure ain't "Let's Make a Deal"
Channel two

It's the truth, can't deny
On at nine it's "Drunk or High?"
Then at ten it's "Gay or Bi?"
It's true

Channel two

Not up to your usual standards Rex. This one wasn't too shabby but it wasn't a rip-roaring laugh like I've come to expect from you. I don't think that you really got into the Artist like you did with other bands you like better. To each one's own, I personally love Metallica so this was an easy and fun round for me.

(Artitrsy) I liked it, reminded me of Peter Gabriel's "Barry Williams Show" in some respects, but funnier (which is an easy feat, given PG's track record for humor!).

Reminded me of that old song by Weird Al called "Cable TV".... Some pretty funny lines, but not a favorite by you.

I believe this takes a good Metallica song, and turns it into such a good parody that it just raised my stanards for parodies. Thanks.

(Artistry) Now that's not the Channel 2 I'm used to (that's ABC!). Not quite up to the Rex standard (which is jaw-droppingly amazing), but still very good. 555 for you, sir!

Um. . .I'm not sure what your channel 2 is, but damn I want that channel, it sounds much more entertaining than the PBS channel 2 here. . .awesome job.
