Ode to Channel 5

In the early noughties

We found something magical

When we retuned our TV

We found something educational

We'd wait 'til nightfall

For the best surprise

And as innocent teenagers

We'd giggle through the night

School taught us nothing

They turned a blind eye

And so my education

Came from Channel 5

Sometimes we gasped

We'd recoil in shock

With eyes far open wide

Like the legs we saw in shot

We'd wait 'til nightfall

With butterflies

And as innocent teenagers

We'd giggle through the night

School taught us nothing

They turned a blind eye

And so my education

Came from Channel 5

So when you're next with me

And you feel alive

Well you know who to thank

You can thank Channel 5
