tom flannery - if i could talk like david brinkley lyrics
if i could talk like david brinkleyman i’d have it made
those pauses while you wait for more
no-bullsh-t is conveyed
they don’t make brinkley’s anymore
soon they’ll all be dead and gone
replaced by those who had surgery
to look more like paula zahn
if i could talk like david brinkley
and use a pen like him too
not as merely a jagged edge
with an agenda to pursue
but as a tool of honor
to find the truth that may lay
beyond the easy reach of those
who are paid to stay away
i just heard that he died today
i just heard that he died today
i hope he’s listening now
i hope he’s listening now
if i could talk like david brinkley
and if i looked like him as well
cnn would never hire me
but then they can go to h-ll
i want my news from a man who lived
not to say ‘hey, look at me’
but one who said ‘no, look at them
they’re the story don’t you see?’
