Tabloid Junkie Lyrics

Written and Composed by Michael Jackson, James Harris III and Terry
Lewis.
Produced by Michael Jackson, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis.
Speculate to
break the one you hate
Circulate the lie you confiscate
Assassinate and
mutilate
The hounding media in hysteria
Who's the next for you to
resurrect
JFK exposed the CIA
Truth be told the grassy knoll
The
blackmail story in all your glory
It's Slander
You say it's not a
sword
But with your pen you torture men
You'd crucify the Lord
And you
don't have to read it
And you don't have to eat it
To buy it is to feed
it
So why do we keep foolin' ourselves
Just because you read it in a
magazine
Or see it on the TV screen
Don't make it factual
Though
everybody wants to read all about it
Just because you read it in a
magazine
Or see it on the TV screen
Don't make it factual, actual
They
say he's homosexual
In the hood
Frame him if you could
Shoot to
kill
To blame him if you will
If he dies sympathize
Such false
witnesses
Damn self righteousness
In the black
Stab me in the
back
In the face
To lie and shame the race
Heroine and Marilyn
The
headline stories of
All your glory
It's slander
With the words you
use
You're a parasite in black and white
Do anything for news
If you
don't go and buy it
Then they won't glorify it
To read it sanctifies
it
Then why do we keep foolin' ourselves
Just because you read it in a
magazine
Or see it on the TV screen
Don't make it factual
Everybody
wants to read all about it
Just because you read it in a magazine
Or see
it on the TV screen
Don't make it factual
See, but everybody wants to
believe all about it
Just because you read it in a magazine
Or see it on
the TV screen
Don't make it factual
See, but everybody wants to believe
all about it
Just because you read it in a magazine
Or see it on the TV
screen
Don't make it factual, actual
She's blonde and she's
bisexual
Scandal
With the words you use
You're a parasite in black and
white
Do anything for news
And you don't go and buy it
Then they won't
glorify it
To read it sanctifies it
Why do we keep foolin'
ourselves
Slander
You say it's not a sin
But with your pen you torture
men
Then why do we keep foolin' ourselves
Just because you read it in a
magazine
Or see it on the TV screen
Don't make it factual
Though
everybody wants to read all about it
Just because you read it in a
magazine
Or see it on the TV screen
Don't make it factual
See, but
everybody wants to believe all about it
Just because you read it in a
magazine
Or see it on the TV screen
Don't make it factual
Just because
you read it in a magazine
Or see it on the TV screen
Don't make it
factual
Just because you read it in a magazine
Or see it on the TV
screen
Don't make it factual, actual
You're so damn disrespectable
