News To See by Erisa Rei Kopp/Pesky Fly Music 2011 Verse One: She said, Dolores said that Hilda said tomorrow I’m dying Folks heard a little bird reveal that the murder’s me Mouth’s flapped, knees were slapped and no one suggested they’re lying While I grinned, laughed at them and hoped that my bail was free Chorus: And if they had asked me I would’ve said That there’s some news to see There’s some news to see And if they had asked me I would’ve said That there would be some news to see Verse Two: She said “How you been? You heard about poor, little Joe-Joe?” Her friend knows a man hinting that he lost his mind Her tongue clucked, my head ducked while my lips said “Oh, no-no. I saw my pal with his gal and he seemed to be just fine Chorus: And if she had asked me I would’ve said That there’s some news to see There’s some news to see And if she had asked me I would’ve said That there would be some news to see Bridge: Without questions are no answers, no answers With suggestion grows a cancer, a cancer Verse 3: Low-blow, shoulda known I have no right to my own mind Hem and haw, the folderol that comes from her lips to my ears Fat-chance, fancy-pants, with her mouth running all the time For her to shut up, drink her cup and leave it in yesteryear Chorus: Why didn’t she ask me if I think There’s some news to see If there’s some news to see But since she won’t ask me Honestly there would be some news to see If she’d just stop and breathe Enjoy my company There would be some news to see
