This next song was written
a year and a half ago.
It was the last song that
Paul
Williams and
Roger
Nichols wrote together as a team.
And of course, you know,
Paul has gone on to much
great success and
Roger continues to write.
Some of the great things they did were like out in the country,
we've only just begun.
But this song that they wrote a year and
a half ago is so much today.
Have you heard the news
You know,
it's seldom good
Prices rising, it's not surprising
We take, but never seem to give
You know that's no way to live
Have you heard the news?
I'm not so sure you should
Conver sation face the nation
They say the future's
in my hand
But I for one don't understand
Time for a change
We all know that we should
And if we could change,
then the news might be good.
Have you heard the news?
It just might make you cry
More depression
an d aggression
A soul was traded for a crown I feel
like someone's let me down
Time for a change, we all know that we should,
and if we could change, then the news just
It be gold
Have you heard
the news?
It just might make you cry
More depression an d aggression
A soul, a soul was trading for a crown I feel
like someone's let me down
Don't you?
Thank you very, much.
