Bad News Blues
Navigating a World Drowning in Bad News Blues
Lyrics
Bad news on my TV screen
Bad news saturating television broadcasts.
Bad news on the magazines
Negative information prevalent in magazines.
Bad news on the newspaper
Unfavorable reports in newspapers.
Bad news on the elevator
Negative happenings even in the elevator.
Bad news on the street bad news in my car
Adverse events on the street and in the car.
Bad news under my feet bad news at the bar
Unpleasant situations underfoot and at the bar.
All over my clothes under my head
Negative experiences affecting personal belongings.
On the radio in the laundromat
Bad news featured on the radio and in the laundromat.
Hanging in the air laying on the ground
Negativity hanging in the air and lying on the ground.
Walking up the stairs bad news all around
Encountering bad news while navigating stairs.
No matter where I go I can't get away from it
Expressing the inability to escape from bad news.
Don't you know? I'm knee deep in it
Acknowledging being deeply immersed in negativity.
Who's gonna believe liars and lunatics?
Raising skepticism about the credibility of certain individuals.
Fools and thieves and clowns and hypocrites
Listing various undesirable traits in people.
Gluttony and greed
Referencing excessive indulgence and greed.
And that ain't the worst of it
Implies that gluttony and greed are not the worst aspects.
All the news you could read
Highlighting the abundance of news available for reading.
All the news is filled to print yeah
Emphasizing that all news is filled to print.
Bad news on my left bad news on my right
Bad news surrounding from all directions.
Bad news in the morning bad news at night
Negativity present both in the morning and at night.
In my 'frigerator bad news on my sink
Bad news found even in personal spaces like the refrigerator.
On my typewriter bad news in my drink
Adverse situations even while trying to write.
Bad news on the walls all over the floor
Unpleasant news covering walls and floors.
Down the hall knocking at the door
Bad news persisting and knocking at the door.
Bad news in my mail follow me home
Unfavorable information arriving in the mail.
Bad news on my trail bad news on my phone
Negative experiences trailing the person.
No matter where I go I can't
Seem to get away from it don't you know
Reiterating the inability to escape from bad news.
Don't you know? I'm knee deep in it
Emphasizing being deeply immersed in negativity.
Who's gonna believe liars and lunatics?
Raising skepticism about the credibility of certain individuals.
Fools and thieves and clowns and hypocrites
Listing various undesirable traits in people.
Gluttony and greed
Referencing excessive indulgence and greed.
And that ain't the worst of it
Implies that gluttony and greed are not the worst aspects.
All the news you could read
Highlighting the abundance of news available for reading.
All the news is filled to print
Emphasizing that all news is filled to print.
