Bad News Lyrics - Jack Johnson

A billion people died on the news tonight 

But not so many cried at the terrible sight 

Well, Momma 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 all right 

To put the music behind the news tonight 

Well, Momma said, You can't believe everything ya hear 

The diagetic world is so unclear 

So baby, close your ears 

On the news tonight, on the news tonight 

The unobtrusive tones, on the news tonight

And Momma said, Mmm 

Why don't the news casters cry 

When they read about people who die? 

At least they could be decent enough 

To put just a tear in their eyes

Momma said, It's just make believe 

You can't believe everything ya see 

So baby, close your eyes to the lullabies 

On the news tonight
