lyrics

Will convention unite GOP or blow it apart?
New rover will be able to 'hear' Mars
What exactly happened, and who is to blame?
Mob pelts prime minister with eggs
I read it all in just one day

NFL to put computer chips in balls
2 killed in shooting at Florida hospital
Erdogan demand may strain U.S. ties
'These are trying times'
I read it all while on hour flew by

Trump-Pence unveils modified logo
Mining for sulfur inside a volcano
Don't 'open carry' guns near RNC
Last stand for 500-year-old trees
I read it all before one minute was complete

Brother 'proud' of killing star sister
This could lead to an HIV cure
Tech could be the answer to policing issues
Mick Jagger a dad again at 72
I read it all before one second was through

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
