jack johnson - the news (song lyrics)

A billion people died on the news tonight
But not so many cried at the terrible sight
Well mama said
It s just make believe
You can t believe everything you see
So baby close your eyes to the lullabies
On the news tonight
-
Who s the one to decide that it would be alright
To put the music behind the news tonight
Well mama said
You can t believe everything you hear
The diagetic world is so unclear
So baby close your ears
On the news tonight
-
The unobtrusive tones on the news tonight
And mama said
-
Why don t the newscasters cry when they read about people who die?
At least they could be decent enough to put just a tear in their eyes
Mama said
It s just make believe
You cant believe everything you see
So baby close your eyes to the lullabies
On the news tonight
