I used to watch the news Morning noon and night No news for me anymore It just gives me a fright It's always bombs or murders That seem to make the news IS the world really that depressing It ,s giving me the blues A car went in the water Six people were inside Five of them perished One baby survived Do I rejoice for the baby Then weep for the rest Listening to the news Puts your morals to the test So I stopped watching and listening To the news three times a day Cos no news is good news Or so some people say
