Confessions of a Sky Box

Green light on!  Time for action!
Choose a card from my deck of distraction.
Music? Sport? Shopping?
Some recount about a house some bloke is building?
Repeats of past sucesses?
I have the cure for all your stresses!
Come, take a seat, surrender your soul...
I have the power to take control!
And now I have you captured
Flicking channels, gazing enraptured.

You are under my spell, with the screen aglow.
You're watching it, but you don't even like this show!
And that is by your own admission,
Should you watch in standard or high definition?
I have you! You are now my slave
There is little chance your soul to save
A voice from beyond, what is this?
Disturbing your widescreen, surround sound bliss
Now you have remote in hand, finger on the button is steady
Nooooooo!!! The red light is back on because supper is ready!
