The Jam – News Of The World lyrics
Power, Pop!
Read about the things that happen throughout the world
Don't be believe in everything you see or hear
The neighbours talk day in day out about the goings on
They tell us what they want - they don't give an inch

Look at the pictures taken by the cameras they cannot lie
The truth is in what you see - not what you read
Little men tapping things out - points of view
Remember their views are not the gospel truth

Don't believe it all
Find out for yourself
Check before you spread
News of the world

Never doubt
Never ask
Never moan
Never search
Never find
Never know

Each morning our key to the world comes through the door
More than often it's just a comic, not much more
Don't take it too serious - not many do
Read between the lines and you'll find the truth

Read all about it, read all about it - news of the world

    The moral of this song is rather simple; you can't believe everything you see, hear, or read in the news today. As it says, 'the neighbors talk day in day out about the goings on'. This song speaks of mans desire to read and watch interesting stories in their news sources, and how easy it is for the media to feed us stories that cater to this need. The media has to sell what man wants to read to be successful, and they certainly aren't above lying to sell a few more papers. At its core, this song addresses the corruption in the media.
