Another day of good news gone bad
And talking about the Virgin Mary
Cars crashing right before my eyes
People on the streets committing hari-kari
Another day of good news gone bad
Are you getting enough retribution?
Fast food clogging up the air waves
With their promises of a strong constitution
O it was the way she broke the news
As I recall I was off my face
Maybe in another time; in another place
Another day of good news gone bad
The spruikers promising me the world
Sign up on the dotted line
And we'll turn all your swine into pearls
And it was the way she broke the news
As I recall I was off my face
Maybe in another time; in another place
While your sugar daddies spread the love
It's a dead heat for first place
Punch in your codes to get ahead of
All the dead wringers who wear your face
It was the way she broke the news
As I recall I was off my face
Maybe in another time; in another place
Another day of good news turned bad
It's history repeating itself
An accident just waiting to happen
As we all sink screaming for help
Another day of good news turned bad
And talking about the Virgin Mary
I guess it's just the way of the world
You know the one that's so dark and scary...
