Negative Attention

 

If you have been discussed in the papers

You'd know the news is usually not good.

A story of how you've choked on capers,

Stories that put people in a bad mood.

Foul stories such as houses burnt in fires

Or innocent children getting kidnapped.

When someone for some attention aspires

In the newspapers, they want to be snapped.

They don't realise it's not always nice,

It could ruin lives and rumours could tar

For being infamous comes at a price,

The media's purpose is to wage war.

Thus, be very careful when you seek fame,

The last thing you need is to brand your name.
