Lyrics
I'm Swearin' Off CNN
© 2011 All Words and Music by Warren Hein
One more worthless interview
24 hours of nonstop fools
I twinkle in that anchor's eye
As a kidnapped baby's momma cries
If I'm stuck with Dorothy and Auntie Em
Gimme that remote, I'm swearin' off CNN
This just in, it's breakin' news
I'm not sure who they're talkin' to
Must be bad, but wait what's that?
They've rescued some old lady's cat
If it's back to reruns on PBS
Yeah I'll survive, I'm swearin' off CNN
I'll buy the paper once a week
Check the ads for somethin' cheap
Maybe news from that internet
It's all too crazy, I'm swearin' off CNN
My sis has cancer, found it last fall
Came from nowhere, Doc says they got it all
Big John's boy limped home from Irag
That's reality--tell Ted Turner's boys I won't be back
Sorry, I get serious now and then
'Cuz I'm not kiddin' I'm swearin' off CNN
This just in--my own breakin' news
I'm one guy they aint talkin' to
