about

Local Paper
Charlton/Costelloe/Lee/francois

A slick headline and the story gets a run
Testing their digestion with the spins we have spun
A voice for the people who fold their arms
Combing through their lives with a magnifying glass

No need for short hand, no need for speed
I never even learnt em; I’m the editor in chief
Cause it’s usually pretty easy
keeping up with Ms O’Keefe
When she’s on about the potholes in her street

(Chorus)
The local paper
Keeps you up to date with all the
Most important affairs
The local paper
With pictures of meat and the latest kitchenware

At your door, twice a week, TV guide the cover
Umbrellas on the beach
So we can read about each other
There’s a space to sell your motorbike
and 15-minute fame
And rewrites where we only change the name

(Chorus)

Cause it’s what the people need here
Yeah it’s what the people need here

The local paper
The local paper
The local paper
Turning your quotations into news

The local paper
The local paper
The local pay-pah!
Extra extra!

They embarked on writing and recording their debut album Nightswim. ... more
