Steppenwolf - (Give Me Some) News I Can Use Lyrics
Good evening one and all, this is channel 24Bringing you the latest news around the worldDown in Florida today, someone tried to get awayWhen he commandeered the train at Disney WorldUntil noon it was a standoff, but then he lost his luckWhen someone shot him down, dressed up like Donald DuckIt was a midget G-manAnd we're sorry that we could not show it liveBut we'll have film of the shooting here at fiveGive me some news I can use, let me smile for a whileFor the madness has taken it's tollGive me some news I can use, just a break for the sakeOf my mind which is losing controlFrom Washington today, called a senator to sayThat our future has been cancelled 'cause we're brokeWe called the white house without end finally reached the PresidentSays he don't know if it's real or just a jokeAnd last night at the playoffs, things got pretty grimThey crucified the referee and tore him limb from limbAh, you should have been thereAnd in the weather, there's a hurricane in sightAnd that's the way it is with us tonightGive me some news I can use, let me smile for a whileFor the madness has taken it's tollGive me some news I can use, just a break for the sakeOf my mind which is losing controlSeems like every single day another mind gets blown awayAnd the world goes just a little more insaneI got problems of my own, tryin' to keep my house and homeAnd I sure could stand some cheerful news againMy agent called to tell me my record's on the chartIt's number 90 with an anchor, I never said that it was artI gotta eat too, ya knowAnd my buddy who still owes me for his bailHe says, "don't worry, your check is in the mail"Give me some news I can use, let me smile for a whileFor the madness has taken it's tollGive me some news I can use, just a break for the sakeOf my mind which is losing control
