This has been a long time coming. I'm trying to present my disdain for humanity in one pretty package. But that means I need to have topical music and current events at my disposal and then make a single skit that entertains while also venting some of my distate. Not as easy as it sounds. Of course parodies aren't original and there are already parodies of this particular song but I think mine is pretty good since it uses the original title slightly transformed in wording and usage. I give it to the world.
Something That I Wish I Didn't Know
Music by Gotye (Am, G for the verse, then Am, G, F, G, from the first chorus on)
Lyrics by Oggy
Most the time I wish I didn't know what was happening.
the news is so gruesome that I want to puke.
Then I turn the Internet on
And suddenly my serenity's gone.
MSNBC and CNN I hate you...
If I read another story about Global Warming I'm gonna die.
The Economic Collapse doesn't cheer me up.
What's this, another family dead?
That missing girl they just found her head.
What the hell is wrong, and why can't I turn away.
chorus:
Oh, I wish that I didn't knowhow many school children died in that Tornado
And when's the world gonna end,
cause that's the way it seems and nobody cares.
Another Country down the drain.
Genocide and gang rapes and prostitution
How much did he pay that 'Ho?
Now it's something that I wish I didn't know.

Here's another massacre brought to you by Ragu.
War on Drugs, War on Terror, War on this and that.
I know that people gotta make a buck,
but what if I don't give a fuck?
about a baby who's addicted to crack
or some fat bitch in Iowa who's got fifteen kids...
chorus:
Oh, I wish that I didn't know
how many school children died in that Tornado
And when's the world gonna end,
cause that's the way it seems and nobody cares.
Another Country down the drain.
Genocide and gang rapes and prostitution
How much did he pay that 'Ho?
Now it's something that I wish I didn't know.
