I swear the news is just spreading the blues

[thetworegs]

I woke up early this morning and while reading the paper this one came to mind for the news fest...short and sweet Thanks for listening .

I tell you the news is just spreading the blues
Keeping us down so it can abuse

I Swear the news is just spreading the blues
I Swear the blues is just spreading the news
I Swear the news is just spreading the blues

Keeping us down

Inflations up
The wages are down
Riots in France
Macrons a clown
Ukraine a fortress from Russian aggression
Or are they just provoking Armageddon 
what is the truth?
I swear its the news
he news is just spreading the blues


Its the news its the news that's been spreading the blues
Its the news its the news that's been spreading the blues
Its the news its the news that's been spreading the blues
Its the news its the news that's been spreading the blues
Its the news
Its the news
Its the news
Its the news
Its the news that's been spreading the blues

THE Met have become nothing but a predatory force
The water companies pour shit into the watercourse
Liverpool is ruled by the gun
Woke deconstruction has the west on the run

I Swear
I Swear the blues
I Swear the news
is spreading the blues   
Spreading the blues

I
swear the news
is spreading the blues
The news is spreading the blues
I Swear the blues is just spreading the news
I Swear the news is just spreading the blues
I Swear the blues is just spreading the news
I Swear the blues is just spreading the blues

Keeping us down
Keeping us down
Keeping us down
Keeping us down

Great stuff Trevor.  You know, for years I used to get a couple of the big Sunday papers every week.  About a year ago I decided to stop.  I may be less well informed now but feel a whole lot happier! 

[Pete C]

Great song Trev and totally agree with the sentiment. Why is the news always so depressing?

this is incredible Trev... and so true... I am going to listen to this more and then comment later... awesome stuff... right out of the gate.

[BerryPatch]

Incredible lyrics here Trevor! How much division is stoked by the media companies driven by profits? A lot I'd bet! The music here is great too, so many layers with a cool bluesy vocal on top. Really good!

[Zoltan]

This is quirky and danceable (!).

Let's look at the bright side. Even bad news(paper) is good if you're out of bog rolls!

[Ray Brookes]

Great lyrics, Trev and very true. I never buy newspapers anymore nor do I watch the TV news much. It's all so bloody depressing and mostly fake. A fine track, mate and love that vocal intensity.

[kenny mac]

The lyrical content of the site right now is off the scale.
A great song with attitude and you  have hit the nail on the head.
Super cool.

[cuthbert]

Sorry Trev, but this song as it is right now doesn't qualify for the festival.

NewsFest is intended for original songs inspired by a specific news story, and a link to the actual story (or an image of the clipping if it's from a physical newspaper) must be included in the song post. The lyrics in your song seem to be about the state of the news industry itself.

Please refer to the festival rules for complete details.

Thanks,
cuthbert
