about

Sub human Jeremy Kyle and Graham Norton swap shows, but they both treat their guests in the same way . I find it interesting how forgiving and understanding the general public are towards 'celebratory' .....

lyrics

Kyle sez to Norton lets swap shows
Just for a week to see how it goes…
Well that sound great Norton agrees
It’s just the show mind not the fees
Now Kyle’s doing Norton and Norton’s doing Kyle
But they both still act the same
Graham’s laughing at stories bout drinking and gambling
and cutting up cocaine
Now he’s fawning over tales from the council estate?
About Big Kev, Steve and their dodgy mate Dave
there’s tear drop tattoos, a few missing teeth
They’re joined on the couch by a girl called Shanice
There’s Fosters in cans the audience approve
clapping; loving the open abuse
The polygraph says that kids not yours
But no one hears Norton over the applause
If you’re bored and broke
have a whiff and a toke
There’s nothing left to do
But dreaming of a better day
Down at Wetherspoons
Well it must be tough, there’s no jobs up there
If every things shut down
It’s either sell your gold or sell your soul
In them rough arsed northern towns ….
Sympathy and empathy are both in the room
Norton’s got a tear in his eye
But it’s a different story a click away
Over on channel 5
Now Kyle has ‘em whooping in an hostile room
Deftly applying divide and rule
Heroin! he cries - what’s wrong with you
and they call you a role model ………
You’ve got the world at your feet
And that’s not enough
All your kids have got different mums
Your tax avoidance is questionable
A six figure sum
Boredom, divorce, drinking and drugs
Loopholes to exploit
Lawyers employed the best around
To keep things out of court
Don’t tell me you’re bored
You got a beautiful wife
Cash in the bank you’re set for life
You’ve been sleeping around
You’ve let ya family down
Now, I’m sick of listening to you
The baying and the booing are getting to him
But Kyle keeps chipping away
The drug test has proved positive
You should be locked away.
Two weeks later the swop is done
Normality returns to five and one
Again they’re cheering the substance abuse
The drinking the nightlife, they’ve all been seduced
The twinkle is fading but none of his charm
Norton is grinning with two open arms
They all join in when he burst into song
Had his boredom been cured, was it merely prolonged?
It’s such a forgiving crowd…
