News On The Loose

L.a.


The city awakes, it lives for today 
We feel so secure 
But life is a bore behind all these walls 
We need some excitement for sure 

Watching the news while you're still in bed 
The wheel of sensation turns around your head 
Stay in its dream, believe what you see 
And enjoy all the tears that the children shed 
Gaze at the world in some kind of trance 
Then you're high on words of the Promised Land 

You hit the rainbow through your TV set 
Then you're just flying high among the headlines of death 

News has gone crazy, distorted and fantasy 
Inside it's shady and faking reality 

Papers on fire 
It's burning desire for the wildest lines 
It's not news alright but they're just part of a fight 
Where the winner's he who lies 

But stay where you are, in your iron cage 
Wasting your life, just give it away 
You're chained in words but you've still got time 
To make your own dreams, but then you're satisfied 

News has gone crazy, distorted and fantasy 
Inside it's shady and faking reality 

News is on the loose 
Can't tell the maker from the referee 
News is on the loose 
The lead is straight or was it bent? 
News is on the loose 

I saw the lies 
Bewteen the lines 

News is on the loose 
Can't tell the maker from the referee 
News is on the loose 
The lead is straight or was it bent? 
News is on the loose 

It's out of control 
There's no way to hold on to the truth in life 
The rumours in town are running around 
'Till they all end up with lies 

But who wants to know what it's really like 
Out in the streets, when it's safer inside 
You needn't know anything except what you see 
By the break of dawn, in front of your TV 

News has gone crazy, distorted and fantasy 
Inside it's shady and faking reality 

News is on the loose 
Can't tell the maker from the referee 
News is on the loose 
The lead is straight or was it bent? 
News is on the loose 
I'm dragged around by my simplicity 
News is on the loose 
There's more to life than meets the lens 
News is on the loose 
Can't tell the maker from the referee 
News is on the loose 
The lead is straight or was it bent? 
News is on the loose 
I'm dragged around by my simplicity 
News is on the loose 
There's more to life than meets the lens 
News is on the loose
