Ripper of the Headlines Extra! Extra! Read all about it! "Idol" has America Bird Flu here and there. Drilling in Alaska Congress doesn’t care! Hey buddy! You want a paper? Gimme a nickel. Good Extra! Extra! Pregnant celebrities Scientists cloning sheep Jackson granted amnesty. Cheney’s pacemaker makes a beep. Extra! Extra! Ah, forget it, It’s hard to hate the news. For me A paperboy. Extra? Yeah right. Who gives a rat’s uncle? I only care about the hole in my sock. Momma says, "Life... is like a box full of chocolates, you never know when you're gonna get one with a nut in it". |
