Watching the News

Iggy Pop

Bzz bzz bzz bzz, watching the news
The plot you already know don't have anything
They don't belong to anywhere
Imagining things to be perfectly white

Who are these people?
They don't belong
Where's the U.S. navy?
I like the action money money

Food here, woman woman
Fight here approval approval
Frown frown, approval
My daughter's not some damn hamburger chainsaw

In a parking lot she trips
Quick, quick won't somebody help me?
She carries that television on her back
As I watch the news

That's the Russians carry the television
Money, money carry the television
Food here, fuck here, fuck here, fight here
Get out approval you don't count

The president today announced
That he's pushing all the buttons in a giggling fit
Ha ha ha ha you already know makes you feel good
Makes you feel so good

I want to be on, I want to be on
So good crying I want to be on
The news I want to be known
I want to be known, I want to be on, I want to be known

Come on everybody knows
That everybody's watching the news
Watching? Watching? It's something about crime
Crime, crime I like to watch but I like to

What do you want?
What do you want?
What do you want?
Legs rush, legs rush, legs rush, legs

Scary, scary, damn scary
Come all ye faithful ye joyful triumphant
