The Lyrics

Infomercials really bore me because
I'm not interested in what they're selling

They just keep going, talking on and on
"Hey, watch this bunch of ice cubes melting".

And they make it all way too expensive
They make you pay for the infomercial

Those dummies who buy again and again
Will never learn, I change the channel.

Reality tv should be a crime
Fierce competitions, everyone yells.

They make it as gross as possible
Makes you wanna tear out your hair.

Losers winning big lots of money
Ratings unexplicably high

Just like all the people watching
This load of junk, tell me who knows why.

Yeah, modern tv.
Want old reruns, please.
Yeah, I mostly watch cable now
Find good tv at night.

Infomercials really bore me because
I'm not interested in what they're selling

They just keep going, talking on and on
"Hey, watch this bunch of ice cubes melting".

Reality tv should be a crime
Fierce competitions, everyone yells.

They make it as gross as possible
Makes you wanna tear out your hair.

Yeah, modern tv.
Want old reruns, please.
Yeah, I mostly watch cable now
Find good tv at night.

Yeah, modern tv.
Want old reruns, please.
Yeah, I mostly watch cable now
Find good tv at night.

This song is true to life. Infomercials sell things you may only use ONCE!! Twice if it works... Yeah, let's get some good TV.
