THE CLICKER

The master of the living room,
‘cause I’ve got the clicker,
my children, to my tastes shall groom,
‘cause I’ve got the clicker

They storm around, they scream and shout,
they act as if they’re all put out,
they whine and moan, complain and pout,
‘cause I’ve got the clicker

Procedurals, I won’t partake,
‘cause I’ve got the clicker,
network news lies and berates,
but I’ve got the clicker

Adventure tales, I am a fan,
better sit-coms, I can stand,
but mostly I stream on broadband
when I have the clicker

Reality, thy grind at me,
so I grab the clicker,
a stress release, so great the need,
so I grab the clicker

To reset faith with simple tales,
to restore peace amidst travails,
I rarely feel so week or frail
when I’ve got the clicker.
