Slow News Day - Terri Clark

How Many times a pop star can go under the knife

Seems to be the conversation makin' rounds tonight

And standin' at the bar two friends are looking for a fight

Over what the Bible says is wrong or right

When someone made a movie about Jesus on the cross

A Journalism war of what is truth and what is not

Was all that they could talk about every day for weeks

And do you think that’s how he wanted it to be

Chorus

Lately I pray for a slow news day 'cause everything good’s not bad enough for

the front page

For every ten we lose we only hear of one that’s saved

Sometimes I wanna hide away and pray for a slow news day

People are still good, that I always will believe

But these days it feels like everyone could use a little peace

Livin' in a world that’s filled with fear and worry

It might be time for us to hear another story

Repeat Chorus

When I wake up I don’t wanna see

Those headlines on the TV screen

Repeat Chorus

A slow News day
