Second Hand News Lyrics

I know there's nothin' to say
Someone has taken my place
When times go bad
When times go rough
Won't you lay me down in tall grass
And let me do my stuff

I know I got nothin' on you
I know there's nothin' to do
When times go bad
And you can't get enough
Won't you lay me down in the tall grass
And let me do my stuff

One thing I think you should know
I ain't gonna miss you when you go
Been down so long
I've been tossed around enough
Aww, couldn't you just
Let me go down and do my stuff

I know you're hopin' to find
Someone who's gonna give you peace of mind
When times go bad
When times go rough
Won't you lay me down in the tall grass
And let me do my stuff

Do it, do it, do it

I'm just second hand news
I'm just second hand news, yeah
I'm just second hand news
I'm just second hand news, yeah
I'm just second hand news
I'm just second hand news, yeah
I'm just second hand news
I'm just second hand news, yeah
Yeah

What is the Meaning of Second Hand News?

Oh, the joys of being yesterday's newspaper! In "Second Hand News," Fleetwood Mac gives us a toe-tapping farewell to a love that’s lost its spark. The song is essentially an upbeat breakup letter where the narrator accepts their 'second-hand' status but still wants one last romp in the tall grass. It’s all about moving on with a bit of sass and maybe a little hope that someone else will appreciate the headlines they bring to the table next time around. So crank it up, sing along, and remember: being second hand doesn’t mean you can't make first-rate news! #FleetwoodMac #breakupsong #movingon #rockclassic
