(with John Legend) |
|
Love the lie and lie the love |
|
Hangin' on, with a push and shove |
|
Possession is the motivation |
|
That is hangin' up the |
|
God-damn nation |
|
Looks like we always end up in a rut (everybody now!) |
|
Tryin' to make it real - compared to what? |
|
Slaughterhouse is killin' hogs |
|
Twisted children killin' frogs |
|
Poor dumb rednecks rollin' logs |
|
Tired old ladies kissin' dogs |
|
Hate the human, love that stinking mutt (I can't stand it!) |
|
Try to make it real - compared to what? |
|
The President, he's got his war |
|
Folks don't know just what it's for |
|
Nobody gives us rhyme or reason |
|
Have one doubt, they call it treason |
|
We're chicken-feathers, all without one gut (God damn it!) |
|
Tryin' to make it real - compared to what? (Sock it to me, now) |
|
Church on |
|
Sunday, sleep and nod |
|
Tryin' to duck the wrath of |
|
God Preacher's fillin' us with fright |
|
Tryin' to tell us what he thinks is right |
|
He really got to be some kind of nut (I can't use it!) |
|
Tryin' to make it real - compared to what? |
|
Where's that bee and where's that honey? |
|
Where's my |
|
God and where's my money |
|
Unreal values, crass distortion |
|
Unwed mothers need abortion |
|
Kind of brings to mind ol' young |
|
King Tut (He did it now) |
|
Tried to make it real - compared to what?! |
