Shopping channel blues

(for those that can't sleep)
Ah jesus,I have wasted an hour of my life.
Watching this complete utter shite.
Empty words and pointless jokes
That slip and slide from greasy lips
With well oiled men in Armani suits
Who with lizard hands and pleading eyes
Wonder with deep sad surprise
That we can't survive,it's impossible to exist
Without this stylish diamond watch upon your wrist
And utopia can be a reality ;it's oooooooo so close,
It's just a credit number down a phone.
But all I really want in this precise moment of time,
Is this fluorescent tube to help me to commit a crime.
For I'd reach right in by the tv screen
And land hefty blows upon the smugness of their chins.
For I think I have killed my brain.
I feel like a zombie out of living dead.
It's time to retire and go to bed.
