there is no good news


there is no good news
I'm sorry to say
if you want some good news
you should call it a day
'cause good news is something
that all of us lack
it's the human condition
we believe good news will come back

if you're craving bad news
there's plenty of that
in fact, all that bad news
is simply old hat
'cause bad news is common
to find it ain't hard
you can start by looking
in your own back yard

but still we look
for a fuckin' silver lining
in the grayest of skies
we believe the sun is shining
somewhere else and
tomorrow's our turn
sometimes I wonder
when will we learn?

there is no good news
your dreams you should shelve
there is no good news
I keep telling myself
there is no good news
move along
there ain't nothing to see
there is no good news
so why do I disagree
