lyrics

The world is breaking down
I can feel it breaking down
And for the camera's eye I smile
Can't believe the things I say
Fifty children died today
And for the camera's eye I smile

CHORUS:
As I tell it, tell it like it is
Tell it, tell it like it is

I used to dream of what I'd do
Writing stories clear and true
In my small way
I'd help the world
Now I run to scenes of crimes
Get a closeup, watch them cry
I fix my hair, i wear my pearls...

CHORUS

I've got no time for grieving
Better leave before the story gets too cold...

CHORUS
