T. Karras - Tabloids Lyrics

Tabloids everywhere
With their fancy print and their fancy lies
And the paparazzi with their camera flashes just makes me want to cry
I want to die
I just read the tabloids today
Said that T. Karras rapes and abuses woman
I don't know where they got their sources from
But it's not true, so now I'm on the run
From the paparazzi who be questioning me
Asking if it's true that I did those things
When some random person probably made that shit up
Just to get me pissed off while damaging my career
So what if I do shit that supports their claims
I try my best to function, I'm not crazy and deranged
But no matter how many times I try to tell you
You just misquote me, make me look like I'm clueless
You tell me to grow up when you're immature yourself
Going after f*cked up stories just to amass the wealth
And you're so powerful that you cannot be stopped
Makes me desperate enough to just burn up every shop
That dares sell this shit
Tabloids lie, tabloids cheat
Tabloids do this everyday of the week
Tabloids twist, tabloids manipulate
I guess you can see why I'm filled with hate
Tabloids lie, tabloids cheat
Tabloids do this everyday of the week
Tabloids twist, tabloids manipulate
I guess you can see why I'm filled with hate
I feel like I'm in an episode of the Twilight Zone
All these accusations be hurting my dome
Common sense doesn't matter in the information age
All they care about is their egos and I'm afraid
How come when I do it, it sucks?
But when you do it, it's great! I wish I had the bucks
So I can hire a lawyer and sue for defamation
Against all these tabloid papers across the nation
The hate is strong, now they got pitchforks
Burning my work, rescinding their support
All because they twisted my words for entertainment
This derangement and insanity has got to stop
I'm tired of giving away my power these tabloid cowards
Wish I had that power so I can move on with my life
It ain't right what I'm going through, why you gotta flip the bird?
And take away everything I got as if that's what I deserve
Tabloids lie, tabloids cheat
Tabloids do this everyday of the week
Tabloids twist, tabloids manipulate
I guess you can see why I'm filled with hate
Tabloids lie, tabloids cheat
Tabloids do this everyday of the week
Tabloids twist, tabloids manipulate
I guess you can see why I'm filled with hate
It's absurd the pain they're putting me through
I thought bygones are bygones, I guess I was a fool
When the public shames you for being you
It makes you feel like you don't know what to do
You become lost, confused, don't know who you are
Especially in comparison to those fallen stars
Who actually raped, who actually raped women
Yet they're still winnin', when are they going to fall?
I'm trying my best to stand, but slowly I'm losing my damn
I guess this is all part of their master plan
Leave me so frustrated that I cannot speak
And then they plant the evidence and call me weak
What the f*ck am I, a man or a fall guy?
Why oh why am I getting this attention?
Can I please learn my lesson in peace, I guess not
Might as well get a gun and get myself shot
Tabloids lie, tabloids cheat
Tabloids do this everyday of the week
Tabloids twist, tabloids manipulate
I guess you can see why I'm filled with hate
Tabloids lie, tabloids cheat
Tabloids do this everyday of the week
Tabloids twist, tabloids manipulate
I guess you can see why I'm filled with hate
Tabloids lie, tabloids cheat
Tabloids do this everyday of the week
Tabloids twist, tabloids manipulate
I guess you can see why I'm filled with hate
Tabloids lie, tabloids cheat
Tabloids do this everyday of the week
Tabloids twist, tabloids manipulate
I guess you can see why I'm filled with hate
