Sunday Papers lyrics
Song information
Artist: Joe Jackson Album: Look Sharp!
Lyrics
Mother doesn't go out any more Just sits at home and rolls her spastic eyes But every weekend through the door Come words of wisdom from the world outside
If you want to know 'bout the bishop and the actress If you want to know how to be a star If you want to know 'bout the stains on the mattress You can read it in the sunday papers, sunday papers
Mother's wheelchair stays out in the hall Why should she go out when the tv's on Whatever moves beyond these walls She'll know the facts when sunday comes along
If you want to know 'bout the man gone bonkers If you want to know how to play guitar If you want to know 'bout any other suckers You can read it in the sunday papers, read it in the sunday papers
Sunday papers don't ask no questions Sunday papers don't get no lies Sunday papers don't raise objection Sunday papers ain't got no eyes
Brother's heading that way now I guess He just read something made his face turn blue Well I got nothing against the press They wouldn't print it if it wasn't true
If you want to know 'bout the gay politician If you want to know how to drive your car If you want to know 'bout the new sex position You can read it in the sunday papers, read it in the sunday papers
Sunday papers don't ask no questions Sunday papers don't get no lies Sunday papers don't raise objection Sunday papers ain't got no eyes
Sunday papers don't ask no questions Sunday papers don't get no lies Sunday papers don't raise objection Sunday papers ain't got no eyes
Read all about it, sunday papers
