“Headline Funk”
written and composed by: Emily Jones (c)2006

super funky, yeah, be my monkey
fetch my coffee, how ’bout now?
special interest makes the a-list
receive an award now take your bow

chihuahua drumstick, border nostalgic
gonna rule the states with my brand new flag
hurricane warning, drama reporting
head for the high ground, it’s such a drag

chorus:

all you’ve gotta do is say hey, say hey, say hey
all you’ve gotta do is say hey, not today
all you’ve gotta do is say hey, say hey, say hey
all we need to do is say not today

climbin’ up Everest, need a footrest
who’s gonna sink the big space station?
predicted future, bionic preacher
domestic spying on every relation

rip out the headlines, bring home the frontlines
pick up a book learn a thing or two
political roundhouse, mirrored funhouse
call the shots we’ll have a drink on you

-chorus
