What's the News?
© by R. Bowdon

So you never know just who you’ll meet / going out in public now
Today I may have caught a glimpse of her / Doesn’t matter anyhow
She was wearing that old leather coat / That I gave her on the day
We went sailing on that rented boat / We sailed it all around the bay

I get the traffic in Toronto
and the price of avocados
Is there any news / about her love for me
Well my Twitter feed is hummin’
about the big storm that is comin’
And the riots in / that country overseas
What’s the news? / what’s the news?

I’m glad I have a lot of friends / Because they help me when I’m down
I get to read about the trips they take / without ever leaving town
I don’t know how many friends I have / Well I guess that’s not quite true
Last time I checked on Saturday / Six hundred and fifty two
What’s the news? / what’s the news?

I am mobile online all the time / it’s a habit you might say
all my friends they know just where I am / they can reach me night or day
so I always know what’s going on / what’s the trend and where’s the spot
where to find the people in the know / who’s in love and who is not

Map a route to Carolina
Chart the price of rice in China
Is there any news / about her love for me
Now Politico is hummin
About elections that are comin’
And what the President/ said last night on TV
What’s the news? / what’s the news?
