Tell Me What The Papers Say

I spy headlines, newsprint tells liesTell me what the papers saySave lives don't drive, everybody's got to die somedayAt least that's what the papers sayCoal mines closed downNobody's working underground todayMore jails, peace for saleJapanese still killing whalesTeen dreamsOn two inch screensLipstick boys all look like queensLeast that's what the papers sayI spy headlines, newsprint tells liesTell me what the papers saySave lives don't drive, everybody's got to die somedayLeast that's what the papers sayDope and pills, guns killDeath just buys cheap thrillsCoal mines, closed downNobody's working underground todayTeen dreams, on two inch screensLipstick boys all look like queensLeast that's what the papers say
