Newsreader

I’m in love with the newsreader

But she only ever gives me bad news

Every update is doom and gloom

And I know she feels shit about it too

Too bad it’s on the autocue

Why's it gotta be like that, baby?

What about the bright side too?

Let’s come back tomorrow and maybe

Your spin will change its tune

I’m in love with the newsreader

But I only see her when she’s on the clock

Her voice is ringing in the living room

And she's there more nights than she's not

But only from the waist up

Why's it gotta be like that, baby?

What about the bright side too?

Let’s come back tomorrow and maybe

Your spin will change its tune

Throw me to the sport and the weather

Make me feel better

Before they send it back to you

More puff pieces and car chases

World and finance news

Gotta get commercial breaks in

Drumming up the views

I’ll be watching you

Why's it gotta be like that, baby?

What about the brightside too

Let’s come back tomorrow and maybe

Your spin will change its tune

Throw me to the sport and the weather

Make me feel better

Before they send it back to you

I’m in love with the news reader

But I never know what she’s gonna say

The world is such a fucked up place

And it changes every single day

I hope she's gonna be okay
