(I really needed to vent it out of my system. Will revisit to make it more 'punchy' at some later time.)
Well it’s givin me the blues, scrolling through the news
I was lookin for the truth, but I found a noisy booth
Opinions and lies, mud on the tracks
So hard to trust anyone to get the right facts (now)!
[CHORUS]
Just give me the news, not what you think is right
Just keep it nice and true, don’t paint it blank and white
Take out all the comments, they’re only looking for a fight
This is no social network, this is a news site!
Well, paid trolls and campaigners aren’t good debaters
False liberals, right wingers are just sore haters
Get them a better place to find their kicks
Get them better ways for their views and their clicks (now)!
[CHORUS]
Just give me the news, not what you think is right
Just keep it nice and true, don’t paint it blank and white
Take out the comments, they’re only looking for a fight
This is no social network, this is a news site!
Well, no judgements, no debate, just keep it clean and straight
No Times View, No Clickbait, not on the front page
Get them a space that I can safely ignore
A whole new place for all the losers and more!
[CHORUS]
Just give me the news, not what you think is right
Just keep it nice and true, don’t paint it blank and white
Take out the comments, they’re only looking for a fight
This is no social network, this is a news site!
This is no social network, this is a news site!!
This is no social network, this is a news site!!!
