Lyrics
A Bm A
A billion people died on the news tonight
Bm
But not so many cried at the terrible sight
A
Well mama said
C#m
It's just make believe
Bm
You can't believe everything you see
D Dm
So baby close your eyes to the lullabies
A Bm
On the news tonight
A Bm A
Who's the one to decide that it would be alright
Bm
To put the music behind the news tonight
A
Well mama said
C#m
You can't believe everything you hear
Bm
The diagetic world is so unclear
D Dm
So baby close your ears
Bm
On the news tonight
F#m
On the news tonight
Bm F#m
The unobtrusive tones on the news tonight
A
And mama said
E
Mmm
A Bm
Why don't the newscasters cry when they read about people who die
A Bm
At least they could be decent enough to put just a tear in their eyes
A
Mama said
C#m
It's just make believe
You cant believe everything you see
Bm D Dm
So baby close your eyes to the lullabies
A Bm A
On the news tonight
