Story behind the song
This song is about the irresistably negative slant the 6 pm news puts on our lives through their coverage of invariably disasterous stories.
Lyrics
6 oclock news,
Another day, another disaster,
Which each stroke of the clock,
Our society melts down a bit more,
I watch disdain,
As another man's hopes drift out to sea,
What about the miracles,
The miracles that happen each day ?
The real human interests, That get pushed to the end,
What about them?
No wonder we're all victims, 'cause at 6 pm each night we're told to be.
If the media's our chicken,
our crumbling Culture the egg,
Which came first?
Which came first?
The chicken or the egg?
Another day,
Another drama,
Escalating violence,
At home and abroad,
The house prices, Cost of oil, Death, Violence, Third world
Turmoil...
It's bringing us to our knees, No wonder we're still victims,
'Cause at 6 pm each night we're told to be,
Ignorance is never bliss...
A tree that falls in the forest makes no noise to the
Deaf, Dumb and Blind,
But what about the acts of human charity, I see each day,
'Cause if a man who dedicates his life to something good,
Gets hit by a falling tree...
You can bet your ass on which side of the story we will see...
