Where's the reality in a reality show?

Is raw meat consumed by anyone you know?

 

Did you choose your spouse from twenty applicants?

Do you often go out dancing without your pants?

 

Would you really swap your wife for another?

Make your children deal with a crazy new mother?

 

Do you need to call in a TV Nanny

To tell you not to bust your own kid's fanny?

 

Ted Nugent is shooting everything in sight

And Danny Bonaduce is looking for a fight

 

Tv reality shows are making me feel

That perhaps its my own life is that is surreal.

WHO went dancing without his pants???!!! I missed that one.

I don't watch much TV. Mostly PBS. I miss all the fun (they wear pants).
