Sit back, unwind Is this real life? I can't tell the truth from a lie Numbers, degrees Another tragedy But I don't seem to mind I'm so desensitized Laugh until I cry Bad news never felt so good Bad news never felt so good Deserts in my eyes All I read is lies Bad news never felt so good Bad news never felt so good (Bad news, bad news) (Bad news, bad news) Keep me afraid of everything Tell me that these slippery people That come to meet you Won't see you through Say have you heard The news the word The world will burn Everything's desaturated (So glad you made it) I'm so desensitized Laugh until I cry Bad news never felt so good Bad news never felt so good Deserts in my eyes All I read is lies I'm tired of singing the blues I'm so sick of hearing bad news (Bad news, bad news) (Bad news, bad news) The systems failing All hopes derailing (What am I to do?) Sit in amazement Still in the basement Gimme the bad news Gimme the bad news Bad news, what's new? Can't lose my cool I become too irrational Life's a shit show That's why I'm an asshole I prefer the love But it don't be reciprocal Can't blame me being cold They wait to see me fold Feeding on my lows Like they cannibals But they can't touch my mind I'm of another kind And if they talk about me Then they got too much time Gimme the bad news Gimme the bad news
