Mom's New Boyfriend - The Information Lyrics

I think I saw it on the news feed
And I knew it wasn't true
I could tell by the the way that the words were used
Didn't mean what you said, didn't say what you mean
You're a news fiend
The drama excites you
Hey, lets start a fight, it's not in person
There's no danger, say what you will
Say what you want
You can say anything at all and then move on
Is it information? or education?
What's the price anyway
To entertain the nation

I think I heard it in the playback
Yeah it seems like somethings wrong
The sounds don't match the pictures and
The places don't match the places
I think that they forgot the laugh track
And I'm trying to laugh along
Hey, you had a thought, and it's not true
That don't matter, say what you will
Say what you can
You know what's better than keeping a friend?
It's attention- viewer retention
People saying your name, not to mention
When you're mentioned

Who's lying to me and who's telling me the truth?
Is anybody telling me the truth?

I don't think so
