Cable mania

Has cable television really brought about
Entertainment and fun
Let's peep into a house
Where cable has just come!
Oh dear everyone is irritated,
As papa loves BBC
Didi wants to watch `Superhits'
Dadi wants to
make `Pakurass' with "Khana Khazana"
Oh dear!
This silly cable has
driven everyone "Deewana".
Mom is afraid
But must watch
the horror show in "Raat"
But Bhaiya says "Banegi Apni Baat"
The quarrels and shouts
There is no "Shanti" in the stand.
The remote control
Jumps from
hand to hand.
Isn't cable a
almost like
A curse on the land?
