Paragraph Lyric
Here's your news reportI'm your straight face for todaySorry if it's shortBut I have to get awayAnd be sickFirst the powers that beLine their pockets with your breadAnd it's not too hard to seeThat you're worth more to them deadDon't you know the taxmanMourns you to the nearest bankYou're news reportYou're news reportAnd it's short, short, shortI want to know why people dieBecause they've been forgottenIt's you callin' fallin'And if you're young, son, you're the oneTo lead us into HadesAnd if you're shot dead, then you're called braveAs they shove you down your graveAnd nothing is savedWhile you're growing fatWiping gravy off your sleeveThere's a child who like a ratWould cry and beg for what you leaveOh but you won't be deceived by what you fearAnd you can't be diseased by what you fearYou're news reportYou're news reportAnd it's short, short, short
