Let's Turn On the Telle

Turn on the telle watch wives with knives Murder on CCTV, victims lose their lives Turn on the telle, no one write a script There’s a post-mortem in a darkened crypt Cops chasing crims, drunken street fights Nothing to entertain what a load of **** Turn on the telle, comedy nowhere to be seen Instead, Botox tarts and live sex on your screen Let’s turn on the telle, killer by the sea A victim in the lift on secondhand TV Let’s turn on the telle, Katie’s dirty mansion Faces of the dead and worship of Charles Manson Let’s turn on the telle, bound to be something good A serial killers voice over, dating in the nud’ Let’s turn on the telle, bodies in black bags Dumped in the river, by a couple of psycho lads Let’s turn on the telle, see how he cut her throat Battered her to death, on his flash speedboat Let’s turn on the telle, get some new ideas How to maim, torture, kill, down through the years Let’s turn on the telle, see how the Kray's ruled Sixty-nine channels of murder, has it got you fooled?
