Oh! The pop-idol shows are causing us all a real pain
With the talentless flappin’ and their families looking for fame
Losers they cry: “I’ll make it someday!”
Yeh, crack-pot away, crack-pot away, crack-pot away

Oh! The holiday mood has kids strippin’-off-all for a thrill
And the moral brigade blames it all on cheap booze and the pill
As soon as they land, no time to delay
Wax’d-crack display, wax’d-crack display, wax’d-crack display

They’re headin’ straight for town, to get-on down at the local disco
Care goes out the window, grab a boy – Joy!

Oh! Reality shows are putting us all to the test
Raking in money while we vote for the one we like best
Almost 9 grand they’ve made in one-day
Saps-vote away, Saps-vote away, Saps-vote away

See the Springer guests are spilling their guts on TV
With a hungry audience chanting and hoping to see
A couple of good fights and pro-fan-ity
Bitch-slap away, bitch-slap away, bitch-slap away

The shopping-channel’s just a-waiting for someone to ring
“Be amazed at the looks you’ll get when you’re wearing this bling”
A fool and their money, are parted this way
Half-price today, Half-price today, Half-price today

These shows they come on round, when makers found
That they could see us coming
Rubbish ads and chat-lines everyday – hey!

When you’re viewing tonight by the light of the silvery screen
Are you sure that you’re watching something that you haven’t yet seen?
Get that remote and throw it away
Go-out and play, go-out and play, go-out and play!

Go-out and play, go-out and play, GO OUT AND PLAY!
