Did You Read The Morning Papers?

(nickolas ashford/valerie simpson/r. monica)



Did you read the morning paper

Did you see the front headline

Did you read the morning paper

Baby let me lend you mine



There on the front page was a picture

Of a crowd as they watched a parade passing by

And through the haze of last nights sleep

Something familiar caught my eye



There was a couple looking so much in love, yes

They had a front line view

And as i pulled the paper closer

I realized standing next to her it was you



Did you read the morning paper

Did you see the front headline

Did you read the morning paper

Baby let me lend you mine



Now i know why you've been working late each night

And no longer have desire to ever hold me tight

And your busy, busy schedule was all a lie

Oh, even the dream with a bonus, oh just another alibi



Did you read the morning paper

Did you see the front headline

Did you read the morning paper

Baby let me lend you mine



Did you get the news today

Did you read the morning paper

Isn't the picture very clear

Where do we go from here



Did you read the morning paper

Did you see the front headlines

Did you read the morning paper

Baby let me lend you mine



Oh, what now

Did you read the morning paper

Did you get the news today
