I think I know stuff Reading the News
Music and lyrics Samson Bedford August 2010

I think I know stuff Reading the News
I don’t know nothing that’s not the truth
No I only see
What they want me to see
And I feel so righteous when they say I’m right
But I don’t hear the cries and the screams in the night
No I only hear
What they want me to here – I don’t know nothing

Oh better take a closer look
Blip in the details I sniff a cover up
Brrrrrp bbbrrrrp, phone of the hook
Can’t keep the door shut
Shift the East - West
Watered down so you don’t protest
Turn to page three for some ass and some breast
Not your daughter, chill, take a breath

First
Spin it up and omit the worst
Brush it off now deal with the dirt
A little white lie never hurt – you should smile for the cameras
Oxfords hit, fiddle with the tax
Doesn’t look good, no you can’t tell them that
Hustling votes from the council flats

Chained to the Red Tops
Kicking of “they took our jobs”
So wise those angry mobs
We’re all immigrants here are we not
That aint news that’s just gossip
The glitterati pointless freaks
You know they’ve got PR on it
So careful what you see

Know the game but not the score
Got your head around the war
Commodities or protecting shores
Did you get what you came for
Can’t trust their greed
Carbon from their industries
And the buck lies with you and me
