lyrics

Every single morning
And every afternoon
They read the daily headlines
Citing the antics of buffoons

And they shake their heads and cuss
As they share their smokes with their friends
They drink from polystyrene mugs
Sweet tea and Caterers Blend

Did you see the news?

They know the truth instinctively
And they shout it loud and often
The fools and liars are all exposed
And the villains are unforgotten

They say “It’s the same shit but a different day”
And “If you ask me they oughta ...”
“Why don’t they this?” And “Why don’t they that?”
Is repeated over and over

Did you see the news?

They’ve got the radio blaring
Got their classic rock
Singin’ yeah, yeah, yeah

Did you see the news?

Well this is no made up rhyme
I know this for a fact
Every answer this poor world needs
Is being spoken around the back

On a hundred million smokoes
In a hundred million towns
The working class is so much wiser
Than the clowns that they’ve put in power

Did you see the news?

They’ve got the radio blaring
Got their classic rock
Singin’ yeah, yeah, yeah
