Lyrics
Six O'clock News
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She's been climbin' up in the world I've been slidin' on down
Her life is like a french poodle mine's like an old fox hound
You wouldn't believe that I know her it hurts me through and through
Here I am worried bout the weather forecast
And my baby's on the six o'clock news
[ ac.guitar ]
She's been eatin' off silver and I've been eatin' off tin
I bet her mink coat would just die if I ever showed up again
If she saw me in her mansion well they just give me the shoe
Here I am worried bout the weather forecast
And she's on the six o'clock news
[ ac.guitar ]
She rides around in a limo and I walk around in a transe
She's got a line of the white house I got a hole in my pants
She drank champagne coctails I drank brown bag booze
Here I am worried bout the weather forecast
And my baby's on the six o'clock news
Page two
Well they say that he went to Harvard he'd likes to yacht and sail
The only thing I got in my background is the callouses on my tail
They say that she really loves him I can't say that I do
Here I am worried bout the weather forecast
And she's on the six o'clock news
And that's the way it is on May 25 of 19..
