I suggest changing the colour of the chords and brackets if printing. [] Don't want to read the paper, [] I don't like bad news [] Last night a man got shot, [] Outside the house of blues [] I'd like to ignore it, [] I'd like to just pretend [] That the reason for it, [] Is something I can comprehend [C] I don't listen to the radio [Am] Last time it made me cry [D] Two boys went crazy, [G] Fifteen kids died [C] And I don't know their families [Am] I don't ask them how they're going [D] They're on the other side of the world [G] But it's way too close to home [F] I've got something to say [C] And I thought it might be worth a mention [D] If you're not pissed off at the world [G] Then you're just not payin' attention [F] You can turn off the TV [C] And go about you're day [D] But just cause you can't see it [G] It don't mean it's gone away [C] We don't talk to our neighbours [Am] They've got funny coloured skin [D] We see them out on the sidewalk [G] But we don't invite them in [C] We only eat when we're hungry [Am] And we throw the rest away [D] While babies in Cambodia [G] are starving every day [C] We risk our lives we hit our wives [Am] we act like everything is funny [D] We hid our pain while we go insane [G] We sell our souls for money [C] We curse our mums we build our bombs [Am] We make our children cry [D] We watch the band while Vietnam [G] Just watch their children die [F] I've got something to say [C] And I thought it might be worth a mention [D] If you're not pissed off at the world [G] Then you're just not payin' attention [F] You can turn off the TV [C] and go about your day [D] But just cause you don't see it [G] it don't mean it's gone away It won't go away [x 9] Make it go away
