You can read it in the morning |
|
You can read read it late at night |
|
Well there's been another warning |
|
Or there's been another fight |
|
There's a scandal going on |
|
Some reporter stumbled on |
|
About a leek in the press |
|
And the world is in a mess |
|
Wont you spare me from this story |
|
'Cause I only get confused |
|
Please don't tell me about the news |
|
Please don't tell me about the news |
|
Well some body told me lately |
|
You've been seen down the town |
|
Showing off your latest number |
|
With some young guy hanging 'round |
|
You were flirting with a kid |
|
In a way you never did |
|
When we used to be around |
|
And we thought we had it found |
|
Wont you spare me from this story |
|
Babe I'll only get confused |
|
Please don't tell me about the news |
|
Please don't tell me about the news |
|
There's a man in an office |
|
And you know he's on the make |
|
Long ago he sold his conscience |
|
For the company's sake |
|
Now he's really sealed his fate |
|
By building an estate |
|
An old sacred site |
|
So we cant give up this fight |
|
Wont you spare me from this story |
|
And all those I would accuse |
|
Please don't tell me about the news |
|
Please don't tell me about the news |
