I do stick my head in the sand
And only read stuff that is bland
Don't like anything grim
I keep my view dim

And only read stuff that is bland
Don't like anything grim

I do stick my head in the sand
And only read stuff that is bland

To start with the world was all fresh
Oh why did we make it a mess
Will it ever be right?
We can hope it might
I do have my doubts, I confess.

Will humanity ever be sane?
Will peace and harmony remain?
Is it too much to hope?
Is the answer nope?
I pray for a newborn domain.

The world just seems to have gone mad
With people hurt which makes me sad
I turn off the box
So I don't throw rocks
But sometimes I wish that I had.

With people hurt which makes us sad

I need to stop seeing the news
It brings on a bout of the blues
My channel I'll switch
Hearing Trump I'll ditch
And I'll try to stay off the booze

The daily news is too much
It now lines my rabbit's hutch
There's cheerier fare
For those who do care
To read about celebs and such

I need to stop seeing the news

The daily news is too much
It now lines my rabbit's hutch
There's cheerier fare
For those who do care

The daily news is too much
It now lines my rabbit’s hutch
There’s cheerier fare

The daily news is too much
It now line's my rabbit's hutch

A holiday would be so good
I’d get away soon as I could
To warm days and nights
No need to wear tights
If I could do that, then I would.

The daily news is too much

A holiday would be so good
I’d get away soon as I could
To warm days and nights
No need to wear tights
