Tell Me What The Papers Say — текст песни (Elton John)

I spy headlines, newsprint tells lies
Tell me what the papers say
Save lives don`t drive, everybody`s got to die someday
At least that`s what the papers say

Coal mines closed down
Nobody`s working underground today
More jails, peace for sale
Japanese still killing whales
Teen dreams
On two inch screens
Lipstick boys all look like queens
Least that`s what the papers say

I spy headlines, newsprint tells lies
Tell me what the papers say
Save lives don`t drive, everybody`s got to die someday
Least that`s what the papers say

Dope and pills, guns kill
Death just buys cheap thrills
Coal mines, closed down
Nobody`s working underground today

Teen dreams, on two inch screens
Lipstick boys all look like queens
Least that`s what the papers say
