Please Don`t Tell Me `Bout the News — текст песни (The Yardbirds)

(James McCarty)
You can read it in the morning
You can read read it late at night
Well there`s been another warning
Or there`s been another fight
There`s a scandal going on
Some reporter stumbled on
About a leek in the press
And the world is in a mess
Wont you spare me from this story
`Cause I only get confused
Please don`t tell me about the news
Please don`t tell me about the news

Well some body told me lately
You`ve been seen down the town
Showing off your latest number
With some young guy hanging `round
You were flirting with a kid
In a way you never did
When we used to be around
And we thought we had it found
Wont you spare me from this story
Babe I`ll only get confused
Please don`t tell me about the news
Please don`t tell me about the news

There`s a man in an office
And you know he`s on the make
Long ago he sold his conscience
For the company`s sake
Now he`s really sealed his fate
By building an estate
An old sacred site
So we cant give up this fight
Wont you spare me from this story
And all those I would accuse
Please don`t tell me about the news
Please don`t tell me about the news
