Walter's Lips - Melvins

Now he tells it straight and he makes it short

With a station break in his nightly report

I work all day and then I come home at nite

And I wait for Walter to recite

«And that’s how it is» And he gave me the date

With a smirk on his face, he tells it straight

Foreign correspondents and film clips

I got the scoop from Walter’s lips

Walter Cronkite, won’t you tell me the news

I wonder if you’re wearing shoes?

Walter Cronkite — sitting in your seat

Why don’t you ever show us your feet?

«And that’s how it is» And he gave me the date

With a smirk on his face, he tells it straight

Foreign correspondents and film clips

I got the scoop from Walter’s lips

He allways gives me an explanation

He tells me about the world’s situation

Walter Cronkite is such a gent

Walter Cronkite for president!

«And that’s how it is» And he gave me the date

With a smirk on his face, he tells it straight

Foreign correspondents and film clips

I got the scoop from Walter’s lips
