LyricsDARK
One Two Three Four Five Six Seven ANCHOR What’s the story for the lead? PRODUCER How about the scheming bankers? ANCHOR Not the triple homicide? PRODUCER I think banks are more important ANCHOR But grizzly gets more eyeballs And accounting’s a real bore Don’t forget about my ratings Give the audience their gore PRODUCER Your name’s on the show of course Ultimately it’s your choice But don’t forget professionally Our duty to the public ANCHOR Spare me the journalistic lecture There’s one thing I know for sure Nothing quite sells like strife Which tie with this shirt blue or grey? PRODUCER This, no that… Hell, they both look OK Have you considered red It will pick up the undertones When you speak of death ANCHOR Oh cut the crap You act like this is some higher calling But we both know the truth ANCHOR & PRODUCER It’s another dirty racket Just another dirty racket Such a dirty dirty filthy Dirty dirty little racket PRODUCER Whatever… ANCHOR I could have your job Don’t forget who’s boss PRODUCER Take it then At least I’d have a life ANCHOR Nah, too much work To train another fool In what you do Damn this wine’s gone bad Have another bottle brought to the set I’ll take my libations there |
