Real Bad News

[Verse 1]

You don't know, so don't say you do

You don't

You might think that things will change

But take my word

They won't

You paint a lovely picture

But reality intrudes

With a message for you

And it's real bad news

[Verse 2]

I was undecided like you

At first

But I could not stem the tide of overwhelm

And thirst

You try to keep it going, but a lot of avenues

Just aren't open to you

When you're real bad news

[Bridge]

I've got love and anger

They come as a pair

You can take your chances

But buyer beware

And I won't

Make you feel bad

When I show you

This big ball of sad isn't

Worth even filling with air

[Verse 3]

And baby, let me tell you

You can get some things confused

Like whose secrets are whose

And that's real bad news

Real bad news

Real bad news
