Lyrics:
Point the camera at the baby
Shoot the mother giving birth
Watch the blood run down the table
Close-up to the after-birth
Newsreel
Newsreel
Push
The newsreel playing the same old same again
But I can see your flicker through the glass
And what I wouldn't give for just one touch of your hand
To let me know
What do they see Danny?)
Uncivilized pictures that the newsreel takes of me
So bongo, bongo, bongo, he don't want to leave the Congo
Oh no no no
Darling?)
Uncivilized pictures that the newsreel takes of me
So bongo, bongo, bongo, he don't want to leave the Congo, oh no no no no no
Bingo, bangle,
darling)
Uncivilized pictures that the newsreel takes of me
So bongo, bongo, bongo, he don't want to leave the congo, oh no no no no no
Bingo, bangle,
Newsreels rattle the Nazi dread
The able-bodied have shipped away (lay down your arms)
Molly McGee gets her tea leaves read
You'll be married in a month
of tearful goodbyes
Newsreel commentators said "Cheerio, G.I. brides"
Soon they'll be finding the cold facts and lies
New words for suspenders and young
Newsreels rattle the Nazi dread
The able-bodied have shipped away (lay down your arms)
Molly McGee gets her tea leaves read
You'll be married in a month
In the hood where my dudes spill
If you don't already know then you soon will
This is Goonsville
Where the ? kill
Another ? body on the newsreel
Newsreels rattle the Nazi dread
The able bodied have shipped away
Molly McGee gets her tea leaves read
You'll be married in a month they say
These
have college degrees)
Ah, but have they got their footprints down at Grauman's Chinese?
(There's governors all over in the newsreel pics)
Ah, but were
Newsman's making passes to newslady
Camera stops
Newsreel babies
I like to close all the doors
Make it dark
Make it cool
Come in and talk
darling?)
Uncivilized pictures that the newsreel takes of me
So bongo, bongo, bongo, he don't wanna leave the Congo, oh no no no no no
Bingo, bangle,
the sailboat and the drain,
Between the newsreel and your tiny pain,
Once again, once again,
Love calls you by your name.
Where are you, Judy, where are
Get the need
Get it.
I'm in the movies.
Hello young thing
I'm an old film star
Maybe you've seen my picture.
I need it
Like an old newsreel
I'm
lingers after
Whoa for such a long time
And one crazy fool laughing at the newsreel
Watching as the citizens steal
It's such a riot downtown
Living
away the newsreel
And take the world to task
One man one vote as nations quote
Is that too much to ask
And now I look around me
I see where you were
on and on, the artificial life
Mary Mary got so confused
About the fusion game, what a game
Blunked on booze, she talks like a newsreel
She'll take up any
I am not a pop star -
I am a part of the class war
'Every revolutionary
is motivated by love'
I see the newsreels: 200 bodies
In a shallow
they fill you up with dread
The band start doing the shuffle
The family looks all blank
Spooky starts applauding
'Cos the newsreel shows a tank
Wendy
Fate flickers like a newsreel.
It's dancing across the dark wood restaurants,
the empty sidewalks,
and the hotel lobbies that have started
will
I say it opened my eyes
Showed everyone in a disguise
Yea
The real stay real
The fake come when u sign a deal
Especially if u make the newsreel
was a full life
Now dim in a half-light
Of newsreels and winner's shields
Take care, move slowly now
There are precious few
Who still remember you
a museum
So I gotta Ball like Lucille
Y'all ain't shit on my boot heel
I'm too ill for a newsreel
Need a few mill with a shoe deal
And a room filled with
