News Blues
by Dave FitzgeraldI'm sick of dramatisation
On the TV News.
I hate it when they always take
The darkest of views
Oh Baby...
I got the blah blah blah blues... 12/15/2006

| Posted by Kathleen Wilson on 12/16/06 at 06:16 PM This one made me laugh. Great way of saying it--"the blah blah blah blues"-- we don't turn ours on--we read the internet and newspapers, then the blah blah can be silent at least. I like the "Oh baby" too--at least you are not, or don't feel alone. Companions definitely help this blues condition. |
