And I Guess That's Why They Call it the News

Original song: Elton John, Davey Johnstone
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin

I Guess That’s Why they Call it the Blues

I Guess That’s Why they Call it the News

A Paddy Whack


They Dish it Today
They look at it like they are so clever
Between you and me they Can’t honestly say
Left Wings will rule us forever

Just smile for today
Just put those demons aside
And it won’t be long before liberty runs
To that place in our hearts where it abides

And I guess that’s why they call it the news
Time we demand we hear truth from those boobs
Drafting our Children, Living off Others
Trashing reporters that go under cover!
And I guess that’s why they call it the news.

Just spare us some grace
Picture our fate in your hands
Cling to the Second without hesitation
And never forget our great Land

Our U.S.A.
Dies in the night without help
Now more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself

And I guess that’s why they call it the news
Time we demand we hear truth from those boobs
Drafting our Children, Living off Others
Trashing reporters that go under cover!
And I guess that’s why they call it the news.

[harmonica interlude]

Our U.S.A.
Dies in the night without help
Now more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself

And I guess that’s why they call it the news
Time we demand we hear truth from those boobs
Drafting our Children, Living off Others
Trashing reporters that go under cover!
And I guess that’s why they call it the news.

And I guess that’s why they call it the news.

And I guess that’s why they call it the news.

And I guess that’s why they call it the news.
