Yesterday's News
Ed Edwards
-1-
You tell me bout your problems, the problems with this life,
With twisted world leaders, and murder and strife.
They kill the newborn baby, they kick the neighbor's cat,
Well I'm as tired as you with all the problems like that.
Chorus
Well here's a little concept you might keep in your head:
Just as sooner as later you're gonna wind up dead.
And everything you see around just wont exist no more,
So once a while I got to say, what you cryin for?
Yesterday's news, yesterday's news,
All the strife and worry, all the pain and blues,
Yesterday's news, yesterday's news,
Everything you're cryin about will soon be yesterday's news.
-2-
You say you've got no reason to keep on keepin on,
Everywhere there's trouble, all your hope is gone,
You quit your Bible readin, and you don't even pray,
You say you don't need Jesus - Hey, what can I say?
Chorus - Solo
-3-
Unless you know our Jesus, you'll always loose the fight,
You'll never win a battle if you're heart's not right,
This whole world is hopeless, this whole life is vain,
So why you give so much when all you gettin back is pain.
Chorus - Last line
Everything you're cryin about will soon be yesterday's
Everything you're laughin bout will soon be yesterday's
Everything you're lookin at will soon be yesterday's news.
