Yesterday's News
Lorrie Caplan/Lee Johnson
(updated 7.11.11)

They say, the weather looks good
they'll be, wrong again
like you, they don't tell the truth
I see, right through them

we're like those headline stories
some days I cant believe my eyes
you're as fake as that reporter
getting on my nerves with all your lies...

We're Yesterdays News, like the scandals we see on TV
you missed all the cues, we're the next tragedy
Buildings fall, and markets crash
Disasters turn whole towns to ash
It's like the aftermath of me and you
we're Yesterdays News...

Last week, you promised the world
I thought I could trust you then
but now, my vision is blurred
thru this, shattered lens

you're like that warning message
at the bottom of my tv screen
I have to run and take cover
click my remote, get a change of scene...

Chorus then Bridge:

devastation, crumbled nation,
you're the headline noise, I need to change the station...
