Yellow Is Everywhere
It's here and there
No one seems to care
As it runs the air
Turn on the T.V.
Yellow is all I see
Covers our ears and eyes
Takes over your mind
Yellow is money
Yellow consumes me
Yellow lies
Give it your dime

you should use a different colour to write about, Coldplay already covered that colour satisfactory IMO.

Yellow is in reference to yellow journalism. The song is about the media twisting things to fit an ideology Rather than present the facts indiscriminately.

OK, makes more sense now.
Next question - where's the music?

Haven't finished the song yet. Not ready for release.
I never heard of "yellow journalism". Is that something like purple prose?

Kind of. Yellow journalism, "
journalism that is based upon sensationalism and crude exaggeration."

Honestly, these days I wouldn't mind some good ol' fashioned yellow journalism. To my eyes, it seems like journalists only see red these days.
Always good to see people writing about mass media mania. Nice work.
