Slow News Day -- Terri Clark
How many times a pop star
Can go under the knife
Seems to be the conversation makin rounds tonight
And standing at the bar two friends are lookin for a fight
Over what the Bible says is wrong or right
When someone made a movie about Jesus on the cross
A journalism war of what is truth and what is not
Was all that they could talk about everyday for weeks
And do you think that's how He wanted it to be
Lately I pray for a slow news day
'Cause everything goods not bad enough for the front page
For every ten we lose we only hear of one that's saved
Sometimes I wanna hide away and pray
For a slow news day
People are still good that I always will believe
But these days it feels like everyone could use a little peace
Living in a world that filled with fear and worry
It might be time for us to hear a different story
Lately I pray for a slow news day
'Cause everything goods not bad enough for the front page
For every ten we lose we only hear of one that's saved
Sometimes I wanna hide away and pray
For a slow news day
When I wake up I don't wanna see
Those headlines on the TV screen
Lately I pray for a slow news day
'Cause everything goods not bad enough for the front page
For every ten we lose we only hear of one that's saved
Sometimes I wanna hide away and pray
For a slow news day
A slow news day
Can go under the knife
Seems to be the conversation makin rounds tonight
And standing at the bar two friends are lookin for a fight
Over what the Bible says is wrong or right
When someone made a movie about Jesus on the cross
A journalism war of what is truth and what is not
Was all that they could talk about everyday for weeks
And do you think that's how He wanted it to be
Lately I pray for a slow news day
'Cause everything goods not bad enough for the front page
For every ten we lose we only hear of one that's saved
Sometimes I wanna hide away and pray
For a slow news day
People are still good that I always will believe
But these days it feels like everyone could use a little peace
Living in a world that filled with fear and worry
It might be time for us to hear a different story
Lately I pray for a slow news day

Sometimes I wanna hide away and pray
For a slow news day
A slow news day

This is the song I heard on the radio after hearing the discussion I talked about in my Arena blog... I thought it was appropriate.

Slow news days suck. Theres nothing worse than hitting the refresh button on the news pages and not having something new to waste my time reading at work :) lol. Thankfully there is often a new lyrics du jour to flip to on these occasions. Ok...Back to finding something useful to do.
