US use of the word "Telly"

[airbolt]

Is the use of the word "telly" to mean T.V spreading to the US? I ask because I heard the following in a song recently

" Leave the club, hit the telly, get a room "

In context , its not entirely clear. If anyone knows the current US usage please let me know.

Telly in U.S means motel/hotel

[Greedyfly]

It's slang. Hence hit the telly get a room.

Gee... maybe it's a regional thing, but having traveled for aliving most of my life, I've never heard that use of the word...

Additionally, haven't really heard the use of 'telly' anywhere in the U.S.... at least not unselfconciously... We all know people that use (pardon the expression) foreign phrases to impress people all the time...

What's the context in the song? Most common expression here is still the ancient 'T.V.'...

I got my info from the urban dictionary and would imagine it is a new word used by the 'kids' these days lol

I also have never heard it but I am British.

I'd say greedyfly is correct as I doubt very much that the song to which you refer is about leaving a nightclub so as to get back to the house in time for Neighbours or Home and Away.

I have not heard this at all and I am in US and a High school teacher. If classes were in session, I could find out right away. These kids and their new-fangled language....LOL

Perhaps the song was about being in the U.S. but was written by a Brit.
