It's Good News Week Songtext

von Jonathan King

It's good news week
Banning all the words I write
Destroying them with great delight
They make me start again
It's good news week
Because the rest is not allowed
I think I'll write a song about
The freedom of the pen

Think about the news
Vital things today
Look at the press
Let's see what they have to say

It's good news week
Davey Jones has cut his hair
Although he's left a little there
It's shorter than before
It's good news week
So Paul McCartney's single then
Or is he not, or then again
But is he, anymore?

It's good news week
Elvis is a married man
We told you when it all began
The day would have to come
It's good news week
Lennon is an actor too
He's doing what he wants to do
And having lots of fun

Is the rumor true?
What do you say?
I don't believe Brian Wilson's gone away
"Brian Wilson's gone away?"

It's good news week
They were right, and I was wrong
The other lyrics to this song
Are stupid to compare
It's good news week
Let's talk about important things
Not sordid, useless happenings
That go on everywhere
Do you really care?
Do you really care?
