Dirty Laundry

                                  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 coulda 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 bubble-headed-bleach-blond who 

Comes on at five 

She can tell you 'bout the plane crash with a gleam 

In her eye 

It's interesting when people die

Give us dirty laundry 



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 

Eat 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 



Dirty little secrets 

Dirty little lies 

We got our dirty little fingers in everybody's pie 

We 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!
