I make my living off the evening news
Carry ‘round a camera, everything’s in view
I watch a lot of people lose,
Call it blood and thunder
I coulda been a drifter, but I learned to shoot
Got a lotta pockets, but I don't own a suit
Man I wish I made more loot
Selling blood and thunder

We got the toothpaste model
Who comes on at five
She can tell you 'bout the virus with a gleam in her eye
Still people will say she lied
They want blood and thunder
Can we stream the operation?
Is the GoPro set?
Yeah, the kids in digital got a running bet
Keep the drone from getting wet!
We need blood and thunder
Dirty little live shots
Every other crime
We’ll scratch your eyes out for a piece of the pie
Nobody gets out alive
Without blood and thunder
Riot in the streets,
outbreak on a cruise
no matter what we show
they'll say say it's fake news
It all gives me the Blues
Take your blood and thunder.
