I rolled out this morning
Kids had the morning news show on
Brian gumble was talking about the fighting in lebanon
Some senator was squawking about the bad economy
It's gonna get worse you see
We need a change of policy
There's a local paper
Rolled up in a rubber band
One more sad stories one more than I can stand
Just once how I'd like to see the headline
Say not much to print today
I can't find nothing bad to say
Because nobody robbed a liquor store
On the lower part of town
Nobody od'd nobody burned a single building down
Nobody found a shining angle
Nobody had to die in vain
We sure could use a little
Good news today
I'll come home this evening
I bet that the news will be the same
Somebody takes a hostage
Somebody steals a plane
How I wanna hear the anchor man
Talk about a county fair
And how we cleaned up the air
How everybody learned to care
Oh tell me nobody was assassinated
In the whole third world today
And in the streets of ireland
All the children had to do was play
Everybody loves everybody in the good old usa
We sure could use a little
Good news today
Nobody round the liquor store
On the lower part of town
Nobody oh did nobody burn a single building down
Nobody found shot in anger
Nobody had to die in vain
We sure could use a little
Good news today
