In the news today, from the strange and weird fact file

Singer Michael Jackson sleeps in a oxygen chamber

The singer says that the hyperbaric chamber has the benefits of reversing the aging process

This just in, singer Michael Jackson has a shrine to Elizabeth Taylor in his Encino home

Speculate to break the one you hate

Circulate the lie you confiscate

Assassinate and mutilate

It's the hounding media in hysteria

Who's the next for you to resurrect?

JFK exposed the CIA

Truth be told, the grassy knoll

It's the blackmail story in all your glory

It's slander

You say it's not a sword

But with your pen, you torture men

You'd crucify the Lord

And you don't have to read it (Read it)

And you don't have to eat it (Eat it)

To buy it is to feed it (Feed it)

Then why do we keep foolin' ourselves?

Just because you read it in a magazine or see it on the TV screen

Don't make it factual

Though everybody wants to read all about it

Just because you read it in a magazine or see it on the TV screen

Don't make it factual, actual

They say he's homosexual

In the hood, frame him if you could

Shoot to kill, to blame him if you will

If he dies, sympathize

Such false witnesses, damn self-righteousness

In the black, stab me in the back

In the face, to lie and shame the race

Heroine and Marilyn

It's the headline stories of all your glory

It's slander

With the words you use

You're a parasite in black and white

Do anything for news

And you don't go and buy it (Buy it)

And they won't glorify it ('Fy it)

To read it sanctifies it ('Fies it)

Then why do we keep foolin' ourselves?

Baby! Baby!

Just because you read it in a magazine or see it on the TV screen

Don't make it factual

Everybody wants to read all about it

Just because you read it in a magazine or see it on the TV screen

Don't make it factual

See, but everybody wants to believe all about it

Just because you read it in a magazine or see it on the TV screen

Don't make it factual

See, but everybody wants to believe all about it

Just because you read it in a magazine or see it on the TV screen

Don't make it factual, actual

She's blonde and she's bisexual

Everybody got something to read about

Everybody got something rude to say

Everybody got some vicious scandal

Everybody's got some news to handle

I despise what they're talking about

Everybody's talkin' 'bout every scandal

Then we got something for someone to hold

A scandal and something for the news to say

A scandal

With the words you use

You're a parasite in black and white

Do anythin' for news

And you don't go and buy it (Buy it)

And they won't glorify it ('Fy it)

To read it sanctifies it ('Fies it)

Why do we keep foolin' ourselves?

Slander!

You say it's not a sin

But with your pen, you torture men

But why do we keep foolin' ourselves?

Baby! Baby!

Just because you read it in a magazine or see it on the TV screen

Don't make it factual

Though everybody wants to read all about it

Just because you read it in a magazine or see it on the TV screen

See, so many times, not a friend of mine

Just because you read it in a magazine or see it on the TV screen

Don't make it factual, actual

You're so damn disrespectable
