Afraid to see…
August 30th, 2007 I pushed a button and elected him to office and uh,
He pushed the button and dropped the bomb…
You pushed the button and could watch it on the television,
Those motherfuckers didn’t last too long heh-heh…
I’m sick of hearing about the have’s and the have not’s,
Have some personal accountability…
The biggest problem with the way that we’ve been doing things is,
The more we let you have the less that I’ll be keeping for me…
Well I used to stand for something,
Now I’m on my hands and knees…
Traded in my god for this one,
He signs his name…
Don’t give a shit about the temperature in Guatemala,
Don’t really see what all the fuss is about…
I’m sure somebody gonna figure it out…
Don’t try to tell me how some power can corrupt a person!
You haven’t had enough to know what its like…
You’re only angry cause you wish you were in my position,
Now nod your head because you know that I’m right, alright!
Well I used to stand for something,
But forgot what that could be…
There’s a lot of me inside you,
Maybe you’re afraid to see…
Well I used to stand for something
Now I’m on my hands and knees
Traded in my god for this one,
And he signs his name…

Oh he wants to hypnotize you…’spin his little watch before your eyes’…
I’m not going into work the second Tuesday in September…ask me again, call me a liar…
I can’t believe this, can’t believe our world-wide suicide…what does it mean when war has taken over?
Fucking denial twist…grab a hold of the soul where the memory lingers…ok, is that one a stretch? Get ready to flex…
Does progress need be evolution slow? I do what I want, yet still irresponsibly? We’re all liars, this is our church, let us sing in the choir?

It is all going to be quite different when I am global dictator…we tempt you, we taunt you, we will rebuild our tower, Babel no longer…what would you say? What is the correct answer to why?

How can I give voice to this angst when we do not yet have the words?
Why not?
Walk in me, walk in me…it helps to listen…

Apologizes to many…
