Jimmy the Tube

JIMMY THE TUBE

Here's the story of Jimmy the Tube
who greased his mind with stupid lube.
He watched TV day and night
end result he wasn't bright.

While watching ball one afternoon
in through the door walk three big goons,
New World Order nazi guys
looking for some exercise.

They took their sticks went thump, thump, thump
and Jimmy's head grew bump, bump, bumps.
They threatened him with FEMA  camps 
and electric shocks of mega amps.

And as they turned him black and blue
they teased "How else can we help you?"
Jimmy groaned and begged them for
a rundown of the football scores.

They then kicked Jimmy in the spleen
just as his girl walked on the scene.
She cried in horror and alarm
"Don't you know the game is on?"

The goons then quickly left the mess
notified of a wrong adress.
They left Jimmy broke and numb
and the color of a plumb.

Now the moral here is know the score
before the goons kick down your door.
Turn off the tube and get alert 
for the New World Order hurt.

Jimmy healed but died of spam
that he swallowed with the can.
They buried Jimmy extra deep
in case his brain sprang a leak.

On his tombstone letters told
in a warning big and bold...
On this planet evil lurks
and watching TV makes you jerks.
