A terrible death to die, a terrible death to die,

2023 P.C. / Sanitized version. Nothing negative, no controversial subjects... and,ugh, no fun.
After all, who's ever been talked to death, had their ears talked off, been bored to tears or had to sit through long-winded announcements?
Just know that I've sold my cow...
Announcements, announcements, announcements

Information that we need, that we need, that we need.  
F                         C7         F
