You bend it, you shape it, you squeeze and then you rape it You just don’t know what you really do For money, for power, each minute of the hour You just can’t see that your lie shines through A legend, a story, a fight for love and glory Takes place all the time, according to the news A picture, a photo, a close-up or a total You just don’t care if a victim dies on you A killer, a rapist, a dangerous escapist You’d rather see the story, than see the justice to be done A boozer, a junkie, a sex-molested monkey I just don’t get it, is something wrong with you? A winner, a sinner, a big expensive dinner There is no end to your lack of common sense A warzone, a dryzone, got people out of their home A kill, a thrill, you don’t care if you lie You have to sell, to keep your job alive As cold as ice, you don’t care if they cry There’s no remorse, even when they die It’s on the streets, the press is loose Everytime the day breaks through The news today will make its way And somehow find its way to you A model, a rock star, the wrecking of a fast car You get more famous when you’re dying on the news A hijack, a stockcrack, a politician’s sexlack A kill, a thrill, you don’t care if you lie You have to sell, to keep your job alive As cold as ice, you don’t care if they cry There’s no remorse, even when they die It’s on the streets, the press is loose Everytime the day breaks through The news today will make its way And somehow find its way to you
