Dawn Oberg Information Is Your Friend
[Verse 1]
1 1 is 2
You'd think on that we could agree
And that the sky was blue
And it won't start World War 3
But the findings of a study
Double-blind and peer-reviewed
Will converge two split perspectives
And not be misconstrued
[Chorus]
Information is your friend
Facts are not your enemy
Someone smart said a long time ago
"The truth'll set you free"
And it sucks I even have to say it
That I have to sing and play it
We all enjoy results
Of scientific inquiry
[Verse 2]
There's information all around us
It helps us cooperate
From a street sign to a line of code
Helps us coordinate
Facts can be observable
And so can some events
Misinformation often leads
To harmful incidents
[Chorus]
Information is your friend
Facts are not your enemy
Someone smart said a long time ago
"The truth'll set you free"
And it sucks I even have to say it
That I have to sing and play it
We all enjoy results
Of scientific inquiry
[Verse 3]
Objective truth is a thing
Good journalism helps to make us aware
Regardless of what we want to see there
It doesn't care about our paradigm
Or concept of what's balanced and fair
[Chorus]
Information is your friend
Facts are not your enemy
Someone smart said a long time ago
"The truth'll set you free"
And it sucks I even have to say it
That I have to sing and play it
We all enjoy results
Of scientific inquiry
