TV or Not TV

What can one do without television?
Be productive and come up with a cure.
Hands without remotes serve the devil’s mission.  

Enjoy the outdoors, maybe go fishin’.
Where there’s hooks and worms, temptation will lure.
What can one do without television?  

Blankets plus stars equal careless wishin’
Or break into mansions for a free tour.
Hands without remotes serve the devil’s mission.  

Talk with friends or just sit there and listen.
Start up a fight cause the person’s a bore.
What can one do without television?  

Gazing at clouds is a pretty vision.
Though not as soft as your mother’s couture.
Hands without remotes serve the devil’s mission.  

Be a peacekeeper, stop those from dishin’
Release your anger as your shown the door.
What can one do without television?

Hands without remotes serve the devil’s mission.
