Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everytime I pick up a paper or turn on the tube a news flash
another youth passed school ground's a bloodbath
Politicians caught in sex scames
Major sports figures in and out of rehabs
Holy war with Jews and Arabs
Recalls and cutbacks feature story go to those who gay bash
Bolemic and anorexic actors and actresses swappin' secrets on their freakiest fetishses
Numerous reports of preteen sex
30 second updates on side effects of modern medicine
Rap veteren turn convicted felon
Domestic violence rate excellin'
embezzlement the deficit negligence
More serial killings gang related death still in existence
Mosquitoes dead crows and the viruses that they're inflicted
with road rage incidents it's sickenin'

Talk about beautiful things a little bit
Talk about beautiful things a little bit
Talk about beautiful things a little bit
Talk about beautiful things a little bit

Media slogan we uphold negative promotion

Circultaing seediness validated by leadership whoses primary motive is to make the public more obedient
Everybody plays the fool
Sometimes the main ingredient used in ploy confirming what was stated previous
But if the anchor realizes his position is a gift
he'd truly honor what his mission is..
(Repeat Hook)
In M's song "Beautiful Things," the artist discusses the constant barrage of negative news that surrounds us on a daily basis. The lyrics detail a laundry list of depressing headlines, from school shootings to political scandals to preteen sex and more. In the midst of all this negativity, M urges the listener to take a step back and focus on the beautiful things in life. The song is a call to action, asking us all to look beyond the headlines and find the positive in the world around us.
Throughout the song, M highlights the many ways in which the media is complicit in perpetuating these negative messages. He argues that the media thrives on sensationalism and drama, presenting skewed and one-sided perspectives to keep audiences hooked. Meanwhile, important issues like pollution in the water or unlawful acts caught on camerawill get lost in the shuffle. The message is clear: we need to be more discerning about the news we consume and more active in seeking out positive stories.
