a daily paper,
to think the world's about to end
To hear the opposition doing
things around the bend
There's fooling on the left,
disaster on the right
And dangers looming up ahead
But this is a lie, lie, lie
This world's really not that bad
I know it's a lie, lie, lie
There's more good around than bad
I'm sure it's a lie, lie, lie
They're never right about the good
Don't believe all those
lies
Listen to the people,
dissatisfied is how they feel
Everyone complaining,
talking about a hard luck deal
All the goods come bad,
all the bads come worse
They say we're reachin' all -time low
But this is a lie, lie, lie
This life's really not that bad
I know it's a lie, lie, lie
There's more good around than bad
I'm sure it's a lie, lie, lie
They never talk about the good
Don't believe all those lies
I know it's a lie, lie, lie
This world's really not that bad
I know it's a lie, lie, lie
There's more good around than bad
I'm sure it's a lie, lie, lie
They never talk about the good
Don't believe all those lies
That this is a lie, lie, lie
This world is really not that bad
I know it's a lie, lie, lie
There's more good around the bend
I'm sure it's a lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
They'll never write about the good
Don't believe me
They can't tell me
I'm not blind
