Boob's Tube

My TV quit today
God saw fit to take it away


Big ol ice storm came along
Knocked that boob tube
Off his throne.

Cable company doesn't care
They think I can just sit and stare
At a blank screen with no sound.

People I'm not kidd'n round
My way of life has run aground.

No TV Land no Disney too
No Food Network with all the food.

People won't you hear my plea
Give my TV back to me.

This is so funny, Josette! Whenever the old "boob tube is knocked off his throne," I wonder how life would be without it. You have my sympathy; cable companies can be cruel. LOL Very witty! Love, Carolyn
