the worst of news 2009 - hank green lyrics
hank do you remember when all of georgia fled
that flood that left thousands homeless and seven dead
but while those people drowned and their houses went adrift
the news was about kanye west….and taylor swift
indeed rhett & link, i see the news media failin
every time anyone mentions…sarah palin
they dispatch a dozen camera crews every time she poos
while i can’t escape the feeling she’s just not news
and swine flu, while a k!ller, got more love than it needed
k!lling 4,000 people while the normal flu, unheeded
k!lls 60,000 people year in and year out
people like to have something to freak out about
but then there was that michael phelps marijuana scandal
just one picture and the media flew off their handle
i mean, he did the exact same thing as our last three presidents
something about our priorities here does not make sense
so many important things happened this year friend
iran’s election and m-ss recession and obama sworn in
but to us the things on cable news seem so freaking dumb
and we can only hope that we’re not the only ones
yes, we can only hope that we’re not the only ones
i don’t think if cr-ppy news gets any better than
the scandals of tiger woods and david letterman
i mean, it turns out rich guys cheat on their wives
that wasn’t news in the year twenty five
and one of the biggest stories of the whole entire year
is that susan boyle could sing and bring an audience to tears
with all the pretty people auto-tuned, i think we forgot
you don’t have to be hot to the talent britain’s got
and i still laugh any time i see some poor braggart
proudly holding up a sign proclaiming he’s a tea bagger
besides any confusion about the revolution
i think no matter what they mean the news was an illusion
so many important things happened this year friend
iran’s election and m-ss recession and obama sworn in
but to us the things on cable news seem so freaking dumb
and we can only hope that we’re not the only ones
yes, we can only hope that we’re not the only ones
and i think we three can all agree, the biggest load of po
was that balloon boy falcon who was not in the balloon
just another year where we kept the world alive
we didn’t pay attention but we somehow didn’t die
so many important things happened this year friend
iran’s election and m-ss recession and obama sworn in
but to us the things on cable news seem so freaking dumb
and we can only hope that we’re not the only ones
yes, we can only hope that we’re not the only ones
but since they’re still reporting it…
we just might be the only ones
happy new year, hank
and the other one
your brother
think his name is don
john
