Ode To Dan Rather/CBS "News"

[1369]

I heard you on my TV back in sixty-two
Lying awake intent at tuning in on you.
If I was young it didn't stop you coming through.
Oh-a oh


They took the credit and exposed your forgery.
Rewritten by machine and new technology,
and now I understand the problems you can see.
Oh-a oh

I met your activist children
Oh-a oh
What did you tell them?

Internet killed the TV news star.
Internet killed the TV news star.


Bloggers came and broke your heart.
Oh-a-a-a oh


And now we meet in an abandoned studio.
We hear of "courage" and it seems so long ago.
You must remember how your signoff used to go.
Oh-a oh


You were the first one.
Oh-a oh
You were the last one.


Internet killed the TV news star.
Internet killed the TV news star.
In my mind and in my car,
we can't rewind we've gone too far

Oh-a-aho oh,
Oh-a-aho oh


Internet killed the TV news star.
Internet killed the TV news star.

In my mind and in my car,
we can't rewind we've gone too far.
Freepers came and broke your heart,
put the blame on Microsoft.


You were a CBS star.
You were a CBS star.

Internet killed the TV news star. (x5)
(You were a CBS star.)

Unfortunately, now I have that tune running through my head...
