GIVE ME NEWS I CAN USE As recorded by John Kay & Steppenwolf (From the 1984 Album PARADOX) [Intro]            [Verse 1] Good evening one and all this is channel 24 Bringing you the latest news around the world Down in Florida today someone tried to get away When he commandeered the train at Disney World [Pre-Chorus] ’Til noon it was a standoff but then he lost his luck When someone shot him down dressed up like Donald Duck   It was a midget G-man And we’re sorry that we could not show it live But we’ll have film of the shooting here at five [Chorus] Give me some news I can use let me smile for a while For the madness has taken it’s toll      Give me some news I can use just a break for the sake Of my mind which is losing control       [Verse 2] From Washington today called a senator to say That our future has been cancelled ’cause we’re broke We called the white house without end finally reached the President Says he don’t know if it’s real or just a joke [Pre-Chorus] And in last night’s roller derby things got pretty grim They crucified the referee and tore him limb from limb You should have been there And in the weather there’s a hurricane in sight And that’s the way it is with us tonight [Chorus] Give me some news I can use let me smile for a while For the madness has taken it’s toll      Give me some news I can use just a break for the sake Of my mind which is losing control [Guitar Solo]           #9 [Verse 3] Seems like every single day another mind gets blown away And the world goes just a little more insane I got problems of my own tryin’ to keep my house and home Sure could stand some cheerful news again [Pre-Chorus] My agent called to tell me my record’s on the chart It’s number 90 with an anchor I never said that it was art I gotta eat too ya know And my buddy who owes me for his bail He says "Don’t worry your check is in the mail" [Chorus] Give me some news I can use let me smile for a while For the madness has taken it’s toll      Give me some news I can use just a break for the sake Of my mind which is losing control [Out-Chorus] Whoa news I can use let me smile for a while For the madness has taken it’s toll      Give me some news I can use just a break for the sake Of my mind which is losing control Yah news I can use let me smile for a while For the madness has taken it’s toll      Give me some news I can use just a break for the sake Of my mind which is losing control

Cette chanson parle d'un désir urgent d'entendre des nouvelles plus réjouissantes dans un monde devenu fou. Le narrateur évoque des événements absurdes et tragiques qui se déroulent autour de lui, soulignant la détresse que ressentent les gens face à tant de chaos. Il cherche un instant de répit, un petit rayon de soleil dans un quotidien saturé de problèmes et d'incertitudes. Le contexte est celui d'une époque marquée par une anxiété ambiante, où les nouvelles sont souvent choquantes et déprimantes. Entre des nouvelles politiques troublantes et des incidents étranges, le protagoniste espère pouvoir retrouver ne serait-ce qu'un sourire, même justifié par des nouvelles légères et divertissantes. C'est une réflexion sur notre besoin d'évasion face à une réalité parfois insupportable.
