These people have been lying to us and spewing their propaganda for as long as I have been alive. I just figured somebody ought to write this song, and call them out.
Lyrics
Swimming in the Shark Pool
If you are one smooth talker and you need somewhere to go
If your hair is perfect, your teeth are straight, your IQ high or low
If you can read a teleprompter in a very convincing way
There’s a spot for you on the National News
With your arrogance on display.
Chorus
Swimming in the shark pool, twinkle in your eye
Waiting for disaster, try to make ‘em cry.
Ignore the truth, report the lie,
That’s how you’ll change the world.
Swimming in the shark pool with your bias flag unfurled.
You’ll have to take just what they say, report it as the truth
Don’t you dare think about the subject, don’t you dare go look for proof.
And if you should find some discrepancy, don’t go acting wise,
Just pick up your rose colored glasses, put them right back on your eyes
And go
Chorus
But if your not just there right yet, you’d better hurry up
Cause the ratings are in the toilet, the gig is almost up.
But there’s still a chance if you go right now
For your fortune and your fame
I’ll be looking forward to seeing you
Down at the hall of shame.
Where you’ll be
Chorus
