I've been waiting up late To up-dote on some world affairs My intelligence sources Tell me there's a story there Well our diplomatic corps Has said to keep my cool But I'm so suspicious Maybe I'm the fool I've been hearin' your name In connection with a girl or two It's a world exclusive, babe I guess they spread on you Well our correspondent said You're only playin' games But I know their names Here is the news I'm pullin' out of here Here is the news I'm gonna leave you, dear Here is the news I'll disappear Here is the news Every telegraph line's a-buzzin' Baby, with the talk of you If it's fact or fiction, don't matter If the story's news Well show time is over And now you must pay The price of fame Repeat I'll sell my story To some big, bad, no class Up and down newshound I'll make the headlines shake The only little catch is You'll be mentioned in dispatches I've issued a communique And this is what I'm gonna say Repeat and fade
