Watching the News lyrics

Watching the news

The plot you already know

(Don't have anything)

(They don't belong to anywhere)

Imagining things to be perfectly white

(Who are these people?)

(They don't belong)

(Where's the U.S. Navy?)

I like the action

Money money

Food here

Woman woman

Fight here

Approval approval

Frown frown

Approval

My daughter's not some damn hamburger chainsaw

In a parking lot

She trips

Quick quick

Won't somebody help me?

(She carries that television on her back as I watch the news)

That's the russians

(Carry the television)

Money money

Food here

Fuck here

Fuck here

Woman woman, fight here

(Approval, you don't count)

(The president today announced)

(That he's pushing all the buttons in a giggling fit)

You already know

Makes you feel good

Makes you feel so good

I want to be on

I want to be on

So good crying

I want to be on

The news

I want to be known

I want to be known, I want to be on

I want to be known

(Come on everybody knows that everybody's watching the news)

(Watching? Watching?)

(It's all about crime)

(I like to watch)

(But I like to)

What do you want? What do you want?

What do you want...

(Legs rush, legs rush, legs rush, legs)

Scary, scary, damn scary

(Come all ye faithful ye joyful triumphant)
