tyrannosaurus rex was the king of the mound
all day that fella was struttin’ around
then he turned and said what’s that sound?

the place went quiet, the pterodactyls were downed
sixty million years later you look under the ground
that’s where our hero’s old bones are found

napoleon bonaparte conquered a few
till his winning streak snapped in russia & waterloo
general custer he was doin’ fine too
till he had a little bit of a run-in with the sioux
so while you’re standin’ there admiring the view
keep in the back of your mind that it could happen to you

here on the morning of september second,
the drama of surrender reached its climax.
in a ceremony that lasted only twenty
minutes, the fate of j-pan was sealed forever.

you might be riding high livin’ a life you’d choose
not a care in the world but everything to lose
walk a mile in another man’s shoes
you’ll learn what it’s like to be singin’ the blues
one minute you’re drunk with power to abuse
but you could count ten seconds and find out you’re old news

it was panic
old news
sixteen and a half million shares of stock sold in a single day

no matter how smoothly you think it’ll sail
have your fun but keep an eye on your tail
you may be at the top, but the second you fail
they could seize your possessions and lock you in jail
but maybe that coffin’s still missing a nail
so think about this before you go down that trail

the kidnapping of little charles a.
lindbergh junior was a tragedy,
not only to colonel and mrs. lindbergh but to the nation

in this house, dillinger was found and arrested

take your fortune for granted and you’ll be filled with regret
a payback target karma’s waitin’ to get
so pause for a moment to reflect on one thing
the ephemeral nature of your status as king
the one you laugh at while you’re a rising star of the town
is the first face you’ll see on your way back down

have you no sense of decency, sir?
well, i’m not a crook

you might be riding high livin’ a life you’d choose
not a care in the world but everything to lose
walk a mile in another man’s shoes
you’ll learn what it’s like to be singin’ the blues
one minute you’re drunk with power to abuse
but you could count ten seconds and find out you’re old news

did you ever take banned substances
to enhance your cycling performance? yes
old news

everything is ninety-nine percent but there’s one tiny little issue
it could take a nosedive
it could go bust, sour, south, or sideways
crater, bomb, implode, blow up in your face
go off the rails like a runaway train
spiral out of control or circle down the drain

bernie madoff, you could argue, ruined scores and scores of people,
but in your interview, he seems to suggest they shoulda known better

gary shephard reports on this weekend’s bl–dy action in beijing

police report other beatings and scattered
looting across the city, all in reaction to the verdict

activists, lawyers, and human rights organizations have described the
first year of sisi’s term in office as a
return to egypt’s dark days of oppression

you might be riding high livin’ a life you’d choose
not a care in the world but everything to lose
walk a mile in another man’s shoes
you’ll learn what it’s like to be singin’ the blues
one minute you’re drunk with power to abuse
but you could count ten seconds and find out you’re old news

old news
two fellas in the soviet union were walkin’ down the street and the
one of ’em says, ‘have we really achieved full communism? is this it?
is this now full communism?
‘ and the other one said,
‘oh h-ll no, things are gonna get a lot worse!’
