This song is just about the amount of rubbish to be found on tv and internet these days. ( There is good stuff too obviously) But generally there seems to be more and more channels and nothing worth watching. It's annoying! Annoying adverts, Plus 24 hour news channels full and doom and gloom it's enough to make anyone turn it off.

Thanks for listening.   Darren and keith. ( hopefully you won't turn it off  :D )

TURN IT OFF!

I've seen those adverts between tv shows
more information than i need know
do they even realise i look away
don't think i hear a single word they say

Turn it off Turn it off (what are you waiting for?)
Turn it off Turn it off (what are you waiting for?)
Turn it off Turn it off (what are you waiting for?)
Turn it off Turn it off (what are you waiting for?)
Turn it off!

Whats all this rubbish that i have to endure
In glorious technicolour its still manure
Silly politicians dancing round my head
why don't they do something useful instead

They turn us off, they turn us off
They turn us off, they turn us off

(Instrumental break)

Turn it off Turn it off (what are you waiting for?)
Turn it off Turn it off (what are you waiting for?)
Turn it off Turn it off (what are you waiting for?)
Turn it off Turn it off (what are you waiting for?)
Turn it off!

Everybody look left, everybody look right
somethings are wrong, somethings are right
I've seen those shows, that'll change your mind
You don't have to watch,
you can always change your mind

Turn it off Turn it off ( here i am )
Turn it off Turn it off (here we are)
Turn it off Turn it off (here i am)
Turn it off Turn it off (here we are)
Turn it off!
Turn it off!

Lads this is excellent. Some great whacky sounds in there that help hammer the message home. I don't watch a lot of telly these days. I watch mainly Netflix which has got some good stuff, but it's fair amount of manure too. Watch a lot of YouTube. But yes standard TV especially the news is bloody annoying! But anyway, what a great tune. You chaps have a great musical chemistry and produce some corking tracks.

Clever, catchy and completely true! I like the contrast between the loose reggae of the verses and the soaring, hooky choruses. The spoken word interlude works great too. Excellent stuff.

Love this.  Very original and well produced.  It brought to mind hints of someone my son listens to a lot: Serj Tankian - not that it's anything like him - just a vibe.


Really pro sounding throughout.

Brilliant.

Great track, love the biting lyrics here and the chorus with those backing vocals is the icing on the cake. I love all the little instrumental parts here, really sounds jam packed. Awesome as usual guys 8)
