Song van de maand

Over het nieuws van de afgelopen jaar (ebola, IS, Rusland etc.). Hier een luistervoorbeeldje uit de repetitie van Wooden Ships. Het eerste liedje dat onderbroken wordt met een reclameblok?


Top stories


What is on the news today?
Hold your breath, viral death
Out on the streets and creeping up to you
Oh, thank God, it’s far away

What is on the news, oh dear
Mind your head, Islamic lads
Waving flags, come to slaughter you
Oh, thank God, it‘s nowhere near

    And all the items that are making up our news 
    The scenes of madness, the apocalyptic views 
    Give way to game shows on our celeb TV zoo 
    Reduced to sidekicks in our daily fun revue

What is on the news today?
Russian troops, science scoop
Trouble in Uganda, baby panda
Facebook fake, tectonic quake
And more and even more will come your way
In just a minute, after the break

     commercial break 
     Your life is imperfect 
     You will have a nice house if you drive this car 
     Your life is imperfect 
     You will have lots of friends if you drink alcohol 
     Your life is imperfect 
     You will have a slim waistline if you wear this scent 
     Your life is imperfect  
     You must really come to Africa and see some genuinely poor people

What is on the news today?
Hold your heart, maybe art
Surely music can comfort you
And play the gloom away

    some desperate singing to conclude this song 
    Ladida etc.

Ik ook niet.
En nog wat, de tekst, die is weer in het engels, klopt dat?

Je moet ook niet zo'n dure iPad kopen, die kan niks.
