Breaking news Reading improves your vocabulary Ambition creates success The more effort you put in The better the outcome There is no such thing as an overachiever Now to Harry Rear for sports Thank you, Cindy Last night’s game was a really close one I sat on the edge of my seat The undefeated were outdone It was a very unpleasant defeat They sure broke a sweat They sure were a threat Doing what they could And excuse my cliché But that’s more than you can say Though it sure would do you some good Back to you, Cindy Thanks, Harry Now for your local news You are accomplishing nothing by watching me I am rotting your brain You should check on dinner Your 17 year old daughter sneaks out Every night at 10 To see her 30 year old boyfriend Our generation is killing itself by over consuming And creating mass amounts of pollution Now we’ll move on to the weather With Tracey Stellar Thank you, Cindy What a beautiful December day here in the north I can just smell the polar ice caps melting Feel the summery warmth Hear the birds out in full swing Major floods have been reported Straight across the city Gas emissions are strongly supported Announced the Climate Action Committee Please drive carefully You can’t see too far Through the smog, lies and debris Not to mention the smoke From the rear of your car You can whine and complain You can assume and insult But it’s simple to explain It is your own entire fault As for the local forecast There is a 60% chance of acid rains today Not to worry, the rest of the week calls for Plenty of sun and UVA rays Poking holes in our ozone layer And giving us skin cancer in abundance Also making shocking headlines Your hummer is killing our trees Back to you, Cindy Thanks, Tracey Oh! It seems we have breaking news of an arrest Taking place in the downtown core We have Channel 4’s Deborah Sing on location Deborah, what is going on Well, I’m here at the local Dairy Queen Where police have just made a huge drug bust Police have confiscated a combined value of Approximately $265 000 worth Of marijuana and cocaine They have already made a few arrests, One being a bald, tattooed man Looking to be in his early 30’s As well as a young girl Looking to be only 16 or 17 years old Police have not yet released any names Stay tuned for updates and remembers You heard it first from Channel 4 « return. |
