lyrics

Who dares try to fill Scalia’s chair?
Earthquakes: ‘Big one’ awaits here
Teen impaled during game
What Beyonce is trying to say
I read it all in just one day

Actor quits Twitter after joke
Navy seeks autonomous drones
Former UN secretary-general dies
The new front line in the battle of the airlines
I read it all while one hour flew by

Did police use excessive force in this arrest?
Don’t count iPhone out yet
Pee color spectrum: What it means
Russia’s vast and remote sacred sea
I read it all before one minute was complete

The best love songs of this millennium
Broncos and Manning are done
Gigantic diamond found
Get more than a six-pack by working out
I read it all before one second counted down

Well, 24 hours in a day ain't much
And after 60 minutes an hour's used up
The second hand don't take too long
To tick and tock 'til a minute's gone

So you gotta be sure you ain't a-wasting your time
Reading too many headlines
Cause chances are when a new day comes
You'll just be looking at a thousand more new ones
