It's the story,
The story that you're craving
A tale of all those people
In the spotlight misbehaving
'Cuz passing judgment
On others is the game's name
It's so insane
How we sell shame...
And oh yes, we buy it--
Consume it by the ton,
Binge until we vomit
And tell ourselves it's fun
There are no anorexics
When it comes to making news,
Selling who's who, who's dating who
What couple's through, who's feeling blue
Don't matter what's true...
So pour yourself another
Cup of stone cold fiction
Just to feed your
Main stream media addiction
Pay no attention to my 'ill prediction
'Bout your seedy-ass affliction..
Cuz it may thrill you, fill you
With titillation and elation
But no joke it will kill you
(Your mind, mind you) 'cuz
It's the story,
The story that you're craving
A tale of all those people
In the spotlight misbehaving
'Cuz passing judgment
On others is the game's name
It's so insane
How we sell shame...
