Have You Heard the News?

In my dreams, we walk on the same street
And all we want is what we truly need
And if I stumble, you reach out to me
And if there’s trouble, we both run to the scene
But have you heard the news
Have you… heard the news
Have you heard the news
All these voices not being used
Choices that no one will choose
Have you heard the news?
Mansion on the beach says private property
Palm trees swayin' in the autumn breeze
Some folks barely got enough to eat
While others worry about tax relief
Yes, have you heard the news
Have you… heard the news
Have you heard the news
All these voices not being used
Choices that no one will choose
Have you heard the news?
In my dreams, I climb above the peaks
And reach out for what I cannot see
And none I pass are too steep
To make me slip and fall endlessly
Yes, have you heard the news
Have you… heard the news
Have you heard the news
All these voices not being used
Choices that no one will choose
Have you heard the news?
