Well I'm about to get upset
|
Watchin' my TV
|
Checkin' out the news
|
Until my eyeballs fail to see
|
I mean to say that every day
|
There's just another rotten mess
|
And when it's gonna change, my friends
|
Is anybody's guess
|
|
So I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'
|
Hopin' for the best
|
Even think I'll go to prayin'
|
Every time I hear 'em sayin'
|
That there's no way to delay
|
That trouble comin' every day
|
No way to delay
|
That trouble comin' every day
|
|
Wednesday I watched the riot
|
I seen the cops out on the street
|
Watched 'em throwin' rocks and stuff
|
And chokin' in the heat
|
Listened to reports
|
About the crack that's goin' round
|
Seen the smoke and fire
|
And the market burnin' down
|
Watched while everybody
|
On your street would take a turn
|
To stomp and smash and bash and crash
|
And slash and bust and burn
|
|
And I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'
|
Hopin' for the best
|
Even think I'll go to prayin'
|
Every time I hear 'em sayin'
|
That there's no way to delay
|
That trouble comin' every day
|
No way to delay
|
That trouble comin' every day
|
|
Well you can cool it,
|
You can heat it
|
'Cause, baby, I don't need it
|
Take your TV tube and eat it
|
And all that phony stuff on sports
|
And all the unconfirmed reports
|
You know I watched that rotten box
|
Until my head began to hurt
|
From checkin' out the way
|
The newsmen say they get the dirt
|
Before the guys on channel so-and-so
|
Can further their research
|
And if anybody gets the news
|
Before it hits the street,
|
They say that no one blabs it faster
|
Their coverage can't be beat
|
|
And if another woman driver
|
Gets machine-gunned from her seat
|
They'll send some joker with a brownie
|
And we'll see it all complete
|
|
So I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'
|
Hopin' for the best
|
Even think I'll go to prayin'
|
Every time I hear 'em sayin'
|
That there's no way to delay
|
That trouble comin' every day
|
No way to delay
|
That trouble comin' every day
|
No way to delay
|
That trouble comin' everyday
|
No way to delay
|
That trouble everyday
|
Yeah, it just makes me wanna play the blues
