lyrics

5-year-old girl shoots, kills self
Nazi reference doesn't help
A win for death row inmate
The next president will inherit this headache
I read it all in just one day

Big choice for next president
13-year-old girl dies in hammock accident
Fan stabs pop star multiple times
18 girls die in school dorm fire
I read it all while one hour flew by

Bernie Sanders digs in
Should NBAer get ban for groin kick?
Suspect in cop's death shot dead
Chewbacca mask lady brings joy to Internet
I read it all before one minute was left

'I'm dead! ... I said, I quit, I quit!'
This home is being built into a cliff
Fishermen beaten in South China Sea
Is one minute of exercise all you need?
I read it all before one second was complete

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
