Jack Johnson - The News 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 On the news tonight The unobtrusive tones on the news tonight And mama said Mmm 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 can't believe everything you see So baby close your eyes to the lullabies On the news tonight
