[Verse:]
Mary says things will work out right
But Mary don't have a clue
Living her life in a TV set
Married to some young fool
[Verse:]
Johnny he works at the corner store
He used to play guitar
Grew his hair then shaved it off
He's a 7-Eleven star
[Chorus:]
I got the news
But mem'ries fade by the afternoon
I got the news
So I'm confiding in you
Yeah I got the news
[Verse:]
Sister Ella sits in her room
Dreamed of pots of gold
Missed out on reality
Doesn't realise she's gotten old
[Verse:]
Mary says things'll work out right
But she got left behind
In the dark and distant corners
The corners of her mind
[Chorus:]
I got the news
But mem'ries fade by the afternoon
I got the news
So I'm confiding in you
Yeah I got the news
(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh-ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh-ooh ooh)
[Outro:]
I got the news
But mem'ries fade, fade by the afternoon
I got the news
So I'm confiding in you
Yeah I got the news
Mary says things will work out right
But Mary don't have a clue
Living her life in a TV set
Married to some young fool
[Verse:]
Johnny he works at the corner store
He used to play guitar
Grew his hair then shaved it off
He's a 7-Eleven star
[Chorus:]
I got the news
But mem'ries fade by the afternoon
I got the news
So I'm confiding in you
Yeah I got the news
[Verse:]
Sister Ella sits in her room
Dreamed of pots of gold
Missed out on reality
Doesn't realise she's gotten old
[Verse:]
Mary says things'll work out right
But she got left behind
In the dark and distant corners
The corners of her mind
[Chorus:]
I got the news
But mem'ries fade by the afternoon
I got the news
So I'm confiding in you
Yeah I got the news
(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh-ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh-ooh ooh)
[Outro:]
I got the news
But mem'ries fade, fade by the afternoon
I got the news
So I'm confiding in you
Yeah I got the news
