lyrics

Boss told me I'm fat, ugly and old
Outrage over Katy Perry's Obama joke
Trump's booster shot for his base
Expert: North Korean weapons may be fake
I read it all in just one day

Famed Swiss climber falls to his death
Trump laments 'archaic' rules of Congress
Where the sun rarely shines
EPA scrubs climate change from website
I read it all while one hour flew by

Conservatives look forward to Kennedy-less court
Trump wonders why there was a Civil War
Storms that killed at least 14 turn east
Is sushi healthy?
I read it all before one minute was complete

Pilot: The mystery of United's dead giant rabbit
Spurs coach leaves $5,000 tip
Why are Americans so infatuated with guns?
A generation of heroin orphans
I read it all before one second was done

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
