I wrote this for Song Fight in January 2021, mostly about a certain person who had been very prominent in the news for quite some time at that point, to the degree where coverage of them felt painfully inescapable. I tried to dial up the attitude for some snarky pop punk here.

lyrics

Do you read the New York Times?
For all the latest hot headlines
Or maybe you love the Washington Post?
For current events, yeah, it's the most
Whatever paper you subscribe to
Whatever paper that you turn to

I'm covered in it now
I'm covered in it now
I'm covered in it now

Do you listen to NPR?
In the bathroom or in your car
Or maybe you love WCBS?
For current events, yeah, it's the best
Whatever station that you tune to
Whatever station that you turn to

I'm covered in it now
I'm covered in it now
I'm covered in it now

Now I am a really big deal
What they say about me is real
You need to know just what I'm doing
What fresh hell that I am brewing
Everything I do and say
The cameras just won't go away
I keep getting overexposed
Till you shut your ears, eyes, mouth, and nose

Do you like to turn on CNN?
Saved as a favorite on your television
Or maybe your dealer is Fox News?
Their commentators give you all the clues
Whatever channel you set your dial to
Whatever channel that you nod and smile to

I'm covered in it now
I'm covered in it now
I'm covered in it now
