Lyrics
He's having trouble sleeping through the night
Feeling kinda bad about the things he writes
See he can make it black, he can make it white
Stick a couple wrongs together make them seem alright
And if it bleeds, it leads
He's a newspaper man
They got a lot of ad space to sell
The people are paying, and they're paying well
Selling rumors, damn the news
Fueling anger, damn the truth
If it bleeds, it leads
He's a newspaper man
Newspapers are good
For wrapping dead fish
Swatting flies
Teaching dogs to piss
Start a fire
Stain a mind
Just keep on reading
Nevermind the lies
Oh, nevermind the lies
He got a call with a lead on a corporate crime
Boss man said boy you better toe the party line
Lawyers sent a little money over on the wire
He writes the lies good enough
And he might win a Pulitzer Prize
And if it bleeds, it leads
Yeah, if it bleeds, it leads
He's a newspaper man
