Flying through the air waves
Living through 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 making it clear
Blinding us with those facts
Blinding us with those facts

Have you heard the news?
Have you heard the news ohh oh

Written on the black and white page
We can't believe what we read
Tarting up reality
Has become the new rage

Who said the truth is strange than fiction
Muddy it all up it will cause less confusion
A few white lies for a nice little sensation

Have you heard the news?
Have you heard the news ohh oh

Little box in the corner
A picture worth a thousand words
But who chooses which pictures we see?
Who decides on the commentary?

Keeping the people in a state of confusion
There's a thin line between fact and illusion
They're burning our intentions from big brother in the city

Have you heard the news?
Have you heard the news ohh oh
(When will we get to the real nitty gritty)

Flying through the air waves
Living through 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 making it clear
Blinding us with those facts
Blinding us with those facts

Have you heard the news?
Have you heard the news ohh oh
