Flying thru the airwaves

Living thru the printed word

Flasher in the living room

Guru of the seen and heard

Who decides what we get to hear?

Fuzzy 'round the edges

Or making it clear?

Blinding us with those facts

Blinding us with those facts



CHORUS

Have You Heard the News?

Wo wo wo wooo

Have You Heard the News?



Written on the black and white page

We can't believe what we read

Doubting of reality

Has become the new rage

Who says that truth is stranger than fiction?

Money [it talks] and it will cause less friction

A few white lies for a nice little sensation



CHORUS



Little box in the corner

A picture worth a thousand words

But who chooses which pictures we see?

Who decides on the commentary?

Keeping people in a state of confusion

There's a thin line between facts and illusion

Diverting our attention from Big Brother in the city



CHORUS

When will we get, when will we get to the real nitty gritty, 

nitty gritty, nitty gritty

when will we get to it, when will we get to it now, when will we get to

it

when will we get to it?

Living thru the printed word

[Flasher] in the living room

Guru of the seen and heard

Who decides what we get to hear?

Fuzzy 'round the edges 

Or making it clear?

Blinding us with those facts oh

Blinding us with those facts



CHORUS

Have you heard, have you heard?

CHORUS
