soaring, rock, male vocals, epic, metal, soaring guitars, 80s hair metal

[Intro, spoken word, sleepy male voice]
Before I sleep. 
Just gonna check my phone.
See what’s been goin on in the world.
Let’s see…

[Verse 1]
Record heatwave, massive flood
Micro plastics in our blood
Insect population plummets
Talks break down at peace summit
Deep fake scams, food bank queues
Celebrity scandal interviews

[Chorus]
Ready! Set! Go doom scrollin’!
The boulder’s loose, the news is rollin’!
I’m lying here over stimulated 
My blood pressure is elevated
My flight response is activated 
Three hundred headlines all curated 
I think my bowels just vacated 
Fuck sleep - that shit is over rated!
It’s misery central, join the club!
My scrolling thumb is now a stub
Go doom scrollin’!

[Verse 2]
Massive personal data breach
Pollution closes public beach
Asylum seeker hotel attacked
Big corruption hearing scrapped
Old and sick say - "pull my plug!"
Science finds new super bug

[Verse 3]
Special mill a terry operations
Deadly A I hallucinations!
Earth’s eco system in collapse
Can’t tell the fake news from the facts!
Social media for adults
Gettin' pushed to teens
Mass ongoing rejection 
Of life saving vaccines

[Bridge]
Chronic teacher shortage, meanwhile
Burning books is back in style
Housing costs hit new highs
Border tensions intensify
Media literacy rates declinin’
Where’s my fuckin silver lining?

[Verse 5]
Subtle squeeze on civil rights
C E O pay at record heights
Old sitcom jokes now problematic
Wide spread vote suppression tactics
Doomsday clock one minute away…
…That’s enough fuckin Internet for today

[Outro, spoken word]
There’s only one thing to do -
I gotta take action!
Aw look at that funny cat video! 
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Now, what was I sad about? 
Fuck it. I can’t remember. 
Goodnight everybody!
