  • Parody of "Lose Yourself" by Eminem (czwrefsteven)
  • Song Lyrics:
    Look
    If you had
    One shot
    To sit on your lazy butt
    And watch all the TV you ever wanted
    Until your brain turned to mush
    Would you go for it?
    Or just let it slip?
    Yo

    Remote is ready
    Eyes wide, palms are sweaty
    There's Flintstones on the TV already
    Wilma 'n' Betty
    No virgin to channel surfin'
    And I'm HD-ready
    So I flip
    Garbage is all I'm getting

    There's Simon Cowell
    Who folks wanna disembowel
    He opens his mouth
    Always says something foul
    They're dyin', wow
    Wannabes are crying now
    He votes them out
    Time to throw in the towel

    Shows based on reality
    Oh, the humanity!
    Oh, Ozzy's family
    Sho' loves profanity
    Whoa, the insanity
    Oh, dogs that crap and pee
    Home of depravity?
    No, they live happily
    Yo

    Plus "Da Ali G Show"
    And "Celebrity Mole"
    Oh, and there's Anna Nicole
    Well, she's scaring me

    "Look ma, no cavities"
    Oh, it's a station break
    Better go out to the kitchen and microwave something

    "You're gonna lose your mind watchin' TV" They told me, they'd scold me
    But I'd still tune in every show (show)
    My cable gets C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO
    The Travel Channel, Discovery, and Lifetime (yo)

    "You're gonna lose your mind watchin' TV"
    They told me, cajoled me, "Turn off those music videos" (no)
    I'm gonna watch C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO
    The History Channel and QVC and Lifetime (yo)
    (You're gonna)

    My butt is aching
    As I watch NASCAR racing
    That show about undertaking
    Larry King
    To "24" to "Law And Order"
    The Weather Channel's boring like "60 Minutes"'s ancient reporters
    Next up on "E! True Hollywood Story"
    The rise and decline of twelve actors named Corey

    Shows for next fall, they've already been namin'
    "CSI: Boise" and "Touched By An Uncle" both sound pretty lame 'n'
    So does "Everybody Tolerates Raymond"
    And "King of Queens" jumped the shark the first minute
    I can't believe Richard Simmons ain't in it

    I'll move right on to "8 Simple Rules For Dating My Teenaged Daughter"
    Then I bet
    I watch "The Bachelorette"
    Followed by "Welcome Back, Kotter"
    And "The Muppet Show" where they go 'Mahna Mahna'

    "You're gonna lose your mind watching TV"
    They told me, they'd scold me
    But I'd still tune in every show (show)
    My cable gets C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO
    The Disney Channel and A&E and Lifetime (yo)

    "You're gonna lose your mind watching TV"
    They told me, cajoled me
    But I still love Lisa Kudrow (drow)
    I'm looking at C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO
    The Playboy Channel and Court TV and Lifetime (yo)
    (You're Gonna)

    Never missed "Melrose Place" or "Lost In Space"
    I've seen each "Amazing Race" and "Without A Trace"
    But I only watched "Will And Grace" one time one day
    Wish I hadn't 'cause TiVo now thinks I'm gay

    Oh, and "Fear Factor" I watched maybe a half hour
    After that, felt like I needed a long shower
    Network execs with naked ambitions
    "Next week on FOX, watch lions eat Christians"

    Like to tie up those programming planners
    Make 'em watch all of that junk 'til their heads explode just like "Scanners"
    Leech-covered grub-eatin' fools on "Survivor"
    Look there's James Lipton discussing the oeuvre of Mr. Rob Schneider

    And there's "Gilligan" and "SpongeBob", plus there's "MacGyver"
    And Jay Leno has got Madonna, hey there's Luke Perry on a
    Special all Pig-Latin episode of "Drew Carey"

    Wanna turn on "E.T." 'cause I'm a gossip freak
    And I gotta know who J. Lo is marryin' this week
    A 30 second spot
    Then we come back to "Are You Hot?"
    I was planning on recording "The Sopranos"
    I forgot

    I love shows with or without a plot
    I'll stare 'til my legs are numb, my eyes bloodshot
    Because I only have got
    One brain to rot
    I'm gonna spend my life watching television a lot

    "You're gonna lose your mind watching TV"
    They told me, they'd scold me
    But I'd still tune in every show (show)
    My cable gets C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO
    The Sci-Fi Channel and AMC and Lifetime (yo)

    "You're gonna lose your mind watching TV"
    They told me, cajoled me, "Turn off that Oprah Winfrey show" (no)
    I got it on C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO
    The Learning Channel and MTV and Lifetime (yo)
    (You're gonna)

    You can watch anything you want to, man
    (Sonic SBL)
