“Bad News”

There you go again
Got that look in your eyes
Can’t remember when
Was the last time I was surprised to hear

Something better than yesterday
Or half as good as in February
I need a motion not a notion
Let me live my own life

Don’t tell me any more bad news
All I want is just the honest truth
And I don’t even know what to do
With all the other shit you put me through
Cuz no one told me how to sing the blues
So I’m sitting here like #2
Stop tellin’ your bad news

There I go again
Its taking the best of me
It’s hard to predict
Wether weather the storm is raging down or me

Tell me how I’m supposed to feel
When everyday gets a little more real
All this commotion’s got me hoping
That we’ll get out alive

Oh Lord, don’t tell me any more bad news
Cuz all I want is just the honest truth
And I don’t even know what to do
With all the other shit you put me through
Cuz no one told me how to sing the blues
So I’m sitting here like #2
Stop tellin’ your bad news

(Whoa baby
Woah girl)

Don’t tell me any more bad news
All I want is just the honest truth
Cuz I don’t even know what to do
With all the other shit you put me through
And no one told me how to sing the blues
So I’m sitting here like #2
Stop tellin’ your bad news
Stop tellin’ your bad news
