The Tiger Lillies - The News lyrics

Have you heard the news going round the town the freakshow's shutting down All of you freaks put on the shelves in despair and anguish you will delve Have you heard the news the selfish gits would rather lock you up than face it Political correctness they do claim, they'd rather have you locked up you should be ashamed Have you heard the news you're a disgrace flaunting your deformities in their face So you freaks no longer to be shown, now locked up in hospitals and mental homes Have you heard the news around this place they say that the freakshow's a disgrace All of the freaks no longer on display now in an institution to be locked away Have you heard the news you're all locked up, no longer normal people will be shocked All those freaks lock them up, so our normal citizens you don't corrupt Have you heard the news perverters of young minds now each one of you has had your time They will not tolerate the corruption that you bring normality they reinstate out of this town freaks fling Have you heard the news going round the town all of you freaks are to be put down! News! News!
