Don’t bother to read the paper or watch the news
Because every day is very much the same
Someone died and some people cried
Others sought only fortune and fame
Allegations were denied, some people lied
Businesses floundered, politicians cheated
The usual scandals of the who’s whos
Which tomorrow, of course, will all be repeated

Ouch, the reality bites! Great realistic 55! Just to say, the Royals are here in Malaysia so our news are a wee bit more different for a few days. You know how they will write about an event for weeks after it ends. LOL Mine is here

Wash, rinse, repeat.Wash, rinse, repeat.Wash, rinse, repeat.Wash, rinse, repeat. Kill your TV!
ReplyDeletethat is so true...
ReplyDeleteSo easy to fall into the trap of cynicism and apathy, the enemies of democracy. Too many turn to so-called reality tv and immerse themselves in the lives of celebrities, who don't give a damn about them. What's a citizen to do?
ReplyDeleteabsolutely right! We can be gone out of town for a few weeks - come home- open the paper and the news is the same....bleah! It's like a soap opera!
