[00:21.200]Well, ain't it a shame
[00:23.880]That our short little memories
[00:26.490]Never seem to learn
[00:28.870]The message of history
[00:31.470]We keep makin' the same mistakes
[00:33.880]Over and over and over and over again
[00:37.460]And then we wonder why
[00:39.670]We're in the shape we're in
[00:43.730]Good ol' boys down at the bar
[00:47.250]Peanuts and politics
[00:49.370]They think they know it all
[00:51.900]They don't know much of nothing
[00:54.220]Even if one of them was to read the newspaper
[00:57.380]Cover-to-cover
[00:59.470]That ain't what's going on
[01:02.150]Journalism's dead and gone
[01:05.000]Frail grasp on the big picture
[01:09.950]Light fading and the fog is getting thicker
[01:15.020]It's a frail grasp on the big picture
[01:20.520]Dark ages
[01:35.040]You my love-drunk friend
[01:37.690]All that red wine and candlelight
[01:40.310]Soulful conversations
[01:42.270]That go on until the dawn
[01:45.310]How many times can you tell your story?
[01:48.680]How many hangovers can you endure
[01:52.330]Just to get some snuggling done?
[01:56.000]You're living in a hollow dream
[01:58.340]You don't have the slightest notion
[02:01.430]What long-term love is all about
[02:04.420]All your romantic liasons
[02:08.480]Don't deal with eternal questions like
[02:11.690]Who left the cap off the freaking toothpaste?
[02:14.430]Whose turn to take the garbage out?
[02:16.490]Frail grasp on the big picture
[02:21.730]You keep on rubbin' that, you're gonna get a blister
[02:26.310]It's a frail grasp on the big picture
[02:31.900]I've seen it all before
[03:09.800]And we pray to our Lord
[03:12.470]Who we know is American
[03:15.060]He reigns from on high
[03:17.070]He speaks to us through middlemen
[03:20.260]And he shepherds his flock
[03:22.850]We sing out and we praise His name
[03:25.480]He supports us in war
[03:28.080]He presides over football games
[03:30.800]And the right will prevail
[03:33.190]All our troubles shall be resolved
[03:35.930]We have faith in the Lord
[03:38.550]Unless there's money or sex involved
[03:41.310]Frail grasp on the big picture
[03:45.960]Nobody's calling them for roughing up the pitcher
[03:51.860]It's a frail grasp on the big picture
[03:57.240]Heaven help us
[04:02.790]Frail grasp on the big picture
[04:07.490]All waiting for that miracle elixir
[04:13.020]Frail grasp on the big picture
[04:18.280]I don't wonder anymore
[04:23.540]Frail grasp on the big picture
[04:28.810]You brought her here so go ahead and kiss her
[04:34.060]Frail grasp on the big picture
[04:44.860]Frail grasp on the big picture
[04:49.560]Light fading and the fog is getting thicker
[04:54.370]It's a frail grasp on the big picture
[05:05.110]Frail grasp on the big picture
[05:15.320]Frail grasp on the big picture
