August 31, 2024 Newsy Bits Lyrics

In Brazil, a judge declared with might

An "immediate suspension" to set things right

Twitter X banned, a change in the game

To uphold justice, and honour the name

Judge's gavel falls, the world holds its breath

Philippines, China, accusations of death

A helicopter lost in far eastern Russian skies

With souls on board, hopes and fears arise

In South China Sea, ships collide in the night

Accusations fly, sailors take flight

Tensions rise, waves crash and roar

Two nations intense, we seek something more

Judge's gavel falls, the world holds its breath

Philippines, China, accusations of death

A helicopter lost in far eastern Russian skies

With souls on board, hopes and fears arise

Children in Gaza, the light shines anew

Polio vaccines bring hope to the few

A ray of light in a land of despair

Love and care, we all need to share

Judge's gavel falls, the world holds its breath

Philippines, China, accusations of death

A helicopter lost in far eastern Russian skies

With souls on board, hopes and fears arise

US rapper Fatman Scoop, a legend now gone

Collapsing on stage, where the music lives on

Seven souls lost in Mississippi bus crash

In tragedy's wake, lives gone in a flash
