My first ever indication, was with the BBC

Walked down a street in Pinner, to blow up some old PC

I did my wizard′s trick, walked nearly half a mileAnd all they said was rubbish, can you make it catch on fire

They didn't want the details, the maths was way too tough

The software stuff went past their head, they′d really had enough

I tried to educate them, to simplify the tech

But all they heard was science, a right pain in the neck

You see news ain't entertainment

It should be true not false

They're pumping us with bullshit

The double canular waltz

Next came social media, and as the story goes

Everyone′s a star reporter, with a bloodhound′s nose

Except they have no training, no ethical search for truth

So all we get is blah blah blah, and the hits go through the roof

It's fine if all they′re saying, is small scale trivial stuff

But when it really matters, the details get rough

Today we all are doctors, with opinions left and right

About which vaccine is best, or reject it outright

You see news ain't entertainment

It should be true not false

They′re pumping us with bullshit

The double canular waltz

So what to tell our children, which drip feed is the best

When social's on the left, is MSM the best

Trust TV news for facts, that really is a joke

Watching all day long the waffling of some old woke

You see news ain′t entertainment

It should be true not false

They're pumping us with bullshit

The double canular waltz

You see news ain't entertainment

It should be true not false

They′re pumping us with bullshit

The double canular waltz
