The Six O'Clock News

(album: Soldier Of Fortune - 1980)

She's been climbing up in the world I've been sliding on down
Her life is like a french poodle mine's like an old fox hound
You wouldn't believe that I know her it hurts me through and through
Here I am worried bout the weather forecast and my baby's on the six o'clock news

She's been eating off silver and I've been eating off tin
I bet her mink coat would just die if I ever showed up again
If she saw me in her mansion well they just give me the shoe
Here I am worried bout the weather forecast and she's on the six o'clock news

She rides around in a limo and I walk around in a transe
She's got a line of the white house I got a hole in my pants
She drank champagne coctails I drank brown bag booze
Here I am worried bout the weather forecast and my baby's on the six o'clock news

Well they say that he went to Harvard he'd likes to yacht and sail
The only thing I got in my background is the callouses on my tail
They say that she really loves him I can't say that I do
Here I am worried bout the weather forecast and she's on the six o'clock news
And that's the way it is on May 25 of 19..
