Lazy Reader (To the tune of Lady Writer - Dire Straits)

Lazy reader on my TV
Tells me bout the surgin viktree
So mindless what they do
Next creation from the cauldron brew yeah

Lazy reader on my TV
Has found a better policy
Than honesty you lack
Joe Isuzu sur le pipe du craque

Talk away and the lies are painted on your face
Erronius for the base
Just read your lines, and know your place

Lazy reader on my TV
Several split screens show me flashy
Conjecture serves as fact
The flash has faded and the lens refracts

Talk away and the lies are painted on your face
Erronius for the base
Just read your lines, and know your place

You prattle on command
And to truth you offer up a finger
So proud to propagand
Mud for guns you’re still quite the slinger

Talk away and the lies are painted on your face
Erronius for the base
Just read your lines, and know your place

Lazy reader on my TV
You ain’t sellin’ shit to me
I count the seconds to Brain Numb
Suffocate in the cacaphony

Lazy reader on my TV
Blah blah rah rah surgie free
You know what’s left behind is infamy
See the lazy readers what they bury
Gimme terra smooga liberty
No you don’t got nothin to sell to me
Do you lazy writer on my TV

1. I love the lyric parody, but I've never heard the song.

Not listening to the radio for almost 40 years has its drawbacks, sometimes.

[SalmonChantedEvening]

Dire straits were one of the few bands I got into during the early 80's. Knopfler's a magician. :D

21. Just wanted to say hello, my friend, and kick this thread for SalmonChantedEvening , another

brilliant member of DU...:D

BTW, I felt pretty bad about Tony Snow's illness and death. I know he wasn't "one of us," but I respected him and liked him, since he reacted with humor, and Skinner's thread was exactly right... Lost my own Dad to the same sort of thing, and he was also a Republican, but was the best man I'll ever know...;(

Rhiannon :hi:

on edit: just a typo...:blush:
