What's Going On?
|
|
It's 'Man Bites Dog' in the papers again
|
Oh ho look at the news
|
can anybody here tell me what's going on?
|
|
'Soccer Yob Crushed In Flab Queen's Sex Den'
|
Oh ho look at the news
|
can anybody here tell me what's going on?
|
|
Who do these people think they are?
|
They really make me yawn
|
I'm tired of their silly season stuff
|
and their circles in the corn
|
Aliens have landed!
|
A housewife says its true!
|
"One of them made love to me in the back of his flying saucer all night long!
|
oowoo wooo woooo!"
|
Well I guess if I was that lonely I'd say so too
|
|
So I'll judge not like the good book says
|
I won't go around throwin' stones
|
But somehow I know that something's stupid going on
|
I can feel it in my bones
|
|
Nonstop broadcast vision and sound
|
Oh ho look at t.v.
|
Can anybody here tell me what's goin' on?
|
|
Movies! Sports! Soaps! Come On Down!
|
Oh ho look at t.v.
|
Can anybody here tell me what's goin' on?
|
|
Cartoon characters do their thing
|
I think they're really cute
|
They're not like those nasty men who keep people in Beirut
|
|
Well wait a minute, this is it!
|
This is my all time favorite hit!
|
A giant close up of the double flame grilled burger
|
with an extra thick shake and fries
|
So I guess it really must pay to advertise
|
|
Whatever
|
Since the world began
|
People have done both right and wrong
|
And I know that I'm no angel
|
So I might as well end this song
|
