The most important thing
That we’ve ever learned
The most important thing we’ve learned
As far as children are concerned
Is never, never let them near the television set
Or better still just don’t install the idiotic thing at all
Never, never let them
Never, never let them
Never, never let them
Never, never let them
It rots the senses in the head
It keeps imagination dead
It clogs and clutters up the mind
It makes a child so dull and blind
So dull, so dull
He can no longer understand
A fairy tale, a fairyland
A fairyland, a fairyland
His brain becomes as soft as cheese
His thinking powers rust and freeze
He cannot think, he only sees!
