Breaking News
Every time you turn the television on these days there's breaking news
I can remember the days when a big news story was a fireman rescuing a cat from a tree was something we viewed
What has happened to our world to make it seem to be out of control
All this madness going on out there is surely taking its toll
Instead of talking things out these days, a person's first reaction seems to be rage
Our news media continues to spread bad news on all the world's stages
All is not all bad with our planet, however the feel-good stories are not all being told
We need to work together to allow innovative new ideas to unfold
If you checked your plumbing lately you would probably find the middle class going down the drain
The high cost of living is, and the struggle to survive is simply insane
The only breaking news I want to hear, that peace and harmony have returned to our lives
Things have to change for the better if we want our planet to survive
