Dirty Laundry

Don Henley

    Continues after the ad

    I make my living off the evening news
    Just give me something
    Something I can use
    People love it when you lose
    They love dirty laundry

    Well, I could've been an actor
    But I wound up here
    I just have to look good
    I don't have to be clear
    Come and whisper in my ear
    Give us dirty laundry

    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down

    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em all around

    We got the bubbleheaded bleach-blonde
    Comes on at 5
    She can tell you about the plane crash
    With a gleam in her eye
    It's interesting when people die
    Give us dirty laundry

    Continues after the ad

    Can we film the operation?
    Is the head dead yet?
    You know the boys in the newsroom
    Got a running bet
    Get the widow on the set
    We need dirty laundry

    You don't really need to find out
    What's going on
    You don't really want to know just
    How far it's gone
    Just leave well enough alone
    Keep your dirty laundry

    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down

    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're stiff
    Kick 'em all around

    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down

    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're stiff
    Kick 'em all around

    Dirty little secrets
    Dirty little lies
    We got our dirty little fingers
    In everybody's pie
    Love to cut you down to size
    We love dirty laundry

    We can do the innuendo
    We can dance and sing
    When it's said and done
    We haven't told you a thing
    We all know that crap is king
    Give us dirty laundry

    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
    Kick 'em when they're up
    Kick 'em when they're down
