The Lyrics
As I was watching CNN one day
I saw a man with big ears in a suit saying we must go to war with Iraq
And I said
Chorus:
Does anybody really know what's going on? (no)
Does anybody really know? (what's going on?)
Since North Korea has a bomb (oh, no)
They are more dangerous than Saddam
And I was watching CNN one day
General Colin Powell declared that Iraq will not cooperate with the UN
And I said
Chorus:
Does anybody really know what's going on? (no)
Does anybody really know? (what's going on?)
Since North Korea has a bomb (oh, no)
They are more dangerous than Saddam
And I was watching CNN one day
Being overloaded by news stories trying to entertain
oh, so I just don't know,
I just don't know
And I said, yes I said
Background Vocal
People asking questions
Don't know who they should trust
Don't know who they are
Can't see past the next day
Can't think about the future at all
Have no ambition to look ahead
Just sit around, sit around, and think why
Chorus:
Does anybody really know what's going on? (no)
Does anybody really know? (what's going on?)
Since North Korea has a bomb (oh, no)
They are more dangerous than Saddam
I saw a man with big ears in a suit saying we must go to war with Iraq
And I said
Chorus:
Does anybody really know what's going on? (no)
Does anybody really know? (what's going on?)
Since North Korea has a bomb (oh, no)
They are more dangerous than Saddam
And I was watching CNN one day
General Colin Powell declared that Iraq will not cooperate with the UN
And I said
Chorus:
Does anybody really know what's going on? (no)
Does anybody really know? (what's going on?)
Since North Korea has a bomb (oh, no)
They are more dangerous than Saddam
And I was watching CNN one day
Being overloaded by news stories trying to entertain
oh, so I just don't know,
I just don't know
And I said, yes I said
