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
