Tv's Come Untethered
Sports, Sports, Sports
Weather, Weather, Weather
News, News, News
TV's come untethered
Business, Business, Business
Politics left and right
From dawn to dusk, and onto evening
And far into the night
Pundits, Experts, Talking Heads
Some quite lively, some quite dead
Studio audiences and callers-in
Vying to be heard above the din
Hundreds of channels, options galore
Comedies, movies, talk shows and more
For the serious viewer, watch a docu-drama
Decked out in bathrobe, slippers, and pajamas
Is all this really better than the 'good old days'
When there were only four channels, only four ways
To while away the time, potato chips and couch
~ The fare then far superior, I'll bet you'd avouch
