Newspapers

I work for the newspapers

Any news is good news, i always say

But i don't write no daily column

Talk is cheap, and so's my pay

And when my workday's over

I pocket five or ten from the tray

And then i start it up again at five a.m.

I stack 'em up just to throw 'em away



Now lately, i've been thinkin'

What would the world do without the news?

You wouldn't know when wars were started

Or when they ended
