CNN Blues..

Post by mnaz » September 19th, 2004, 10:06 pm

loose lips sink ships
like radar blips
computer chips
working for tips
like data drips

you must pay your dues
more CNN blues
still spoon fed the news
by company crews
like stolen clues

all in their take
all for your sake
it's freedom at stake
still waiting to break
just what did they make?

they hate us for sure
bombs flash in azure
deeds noble and pure
destruction the cure
we're safe and secure

those people we save
the control we crave
the red flag we wave
don't stop now, don't cave
just enjoy the rave

hey hesty.... thanks....

Your 'information age' piece sparked me....
frustration and anger with my government and
the limp, sold-out media, reduced to a sort of
tongue-in-cheek protest and resignation...

well, it helps me get through it, at least.
