SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!

The Song Challenge:   Reality Intrudes, Let's Hope It Doesn't Bite! -- NBC's top entertainment executives confessed this past June that they had misjudged the public interest in so-called reality shows and that NBC was now committed to finding a reality show of its own for next summer or sooner.   One such show the executives talked about extensively, though they said they did not yet have a deal, is called "Chains of Love," which consists of one young woman selecting 4 men she would like to date from a pool of about 100, and then being literally chained to those four men for several weeks, discarding them one at a time until she selects one winner.  Garth Ancier, the president of NBC Entertainment, called it "a relationship show."

Here's the latest TV show
Find a girl to have a go
Chained to four guys, now you know
TV reality
One by one eliminate
Till at last, by will or fate
Just one is left. Now is this great
Or chains and slavery ?

For the winner there's a prize
That's why I'm chained to four guys
But in their plans they've not been wise
To practicality
To four guys chained is bad enough
But there's all the other stuff
Cameras, lights and mikes with fluff
Nowhere for me to flee

Where I go, I go with four
Like shadows follow on the floor
Where no man has gone before
Four guys go with me
All for one, and one for all
But when I hear nature's call
Turn your faces to the wall
While I have a wee.

Every day and every hour
Like a prisoner in the Tower
The same companions, and no power
Away from them to creep
Five in bed might sound like fun
But there's nowhere I can turn
All attentions I will spurn
For I need my sleep

Then at last the show is done
I don't care who lost or won
Now I'm free to have some fun
Revenge is sweet and free
Director, with his camera crew
Are chained together in the loo
They'll be there for a week or two
I've thrown away the key.
