    General Comment:This song is slagging off the group Television... Idiot Box is slang for a Television.... 'Tumbling you made me art' in the first verse is 'Tom Verlaine you maybe art'... 'Billy Singer' is 'Billy Ficca'... 'Old Friend Smith' is 'Old Fred Smith'... I dont know what Television did to annoy The Damned though.
