N.E.W.S.

I wanna know about the weather tomorrow

I wanna know what happened today

I wanna feel that I'm a part of the games

That all the other people play

I mean being in touch with the actual thing

No matter how amazing

So I turn on my radio, switch on my TV

Open a paper and a magazine

Let's see what they got, let's see what they got

Let's see what they got to upset me

It's pitiful, shameful

All I hear and read and see

Four directions of the wind

And a four way misery

Well once upon a time I was a sailor man

Curious about my destiny

So I sailed away on a ship of slave

The rest is if today's history

There's gotta be a lesson for you and me

I mean everybody

How come we never seem to learn

From the things that we all study

Let me hear you say

North: Scandinavia, Alaska, Siberia

East: Japan, China and India

West: Europe and the U.S., South America

South: Australia, South America, South Africa

N-E-W-S

Jungle drums, work 'em hard

We're gonna get it together

We're gonna work it out

We're gonna get it together

Work it out

So I turn on my radio, switch on my TV

Open a paper and a magazine

Let's see what they got, let's see what they got

Let's see what they got to update me

It's pitiful, shameful

All I hear and read and see

Four directions of the wind

And a four way misery

We're gonna get it together

We're gonna work it out

We're gonna get it together

Work it out
