Lyrics

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