THE NEWS WE NEED TO HEAR.

with their perfect teeth
and their perfect tan
they tell us all they can
of what
their bosses want us to know

smile so sincere
the news we need to hear

the story that is leading
is the baby who is bleeding
if baby's white, what a sin
if baby's black, there they go again

the channel is oh so clear
with the news we need to hear

we are winning in iraq
the taliban is not coming back

though we are so brave
we need to fear a man in cave
he is plotting our overthrow
don't you know
or haven't you been following
the news on the channel
this is clear?

we know the words to gilligan's theme
not the bill of rights or so it seems
we are guiltly until proven innocent
off to gitmo we are sent
expect the courts to be the fairest?
what are you, some kind of terrorist?

just playing with words instead of my dick on a sunday afternoon.
