Before the headlines came I wasn't listening I was too engaged In the media game Then the headlines came And the tv was outraged So of course I felt the same But I cared to late Why do we wait til loves in fashion We sit till we're told to stand Why do we wait for one good headline Before we'll give a damn I heard an actor say We should start giving I heard a rock star sing We are the world It made me feel so brave Like we are a family But when the feelings fade All the hurt remains Why do we wait til loves in fashion We sit till we're told to stand Why do we wait for one good headline Before we'll give a damn A generation can't be founded On the waves of trendy kindness We need to find our intuition Take the harder road That's where compassion grows A generation can't be founded On the waves of trendy kindness We need to find our intuition Take the harder road That's where compassion grows Why do we wait til loves in fashion We sit till we're told to stand Why do we wait for one good headline Before we'll give a damn Before the headlines came I wasn't listening I was too engaged In the media game
