I know that you're in there
I can see you You're saying you're okay I don't believe you And now that gig is up, the spell is broken The fat lady's sung, the president has spoken These days that you were waiting for will come and go Like any day, just another day There's never gonna be a moment of truth for you While the world is watching All you need is the thing you've forgotten And that's to learn to live with what you are So freak out if you wanna And I'll still be here Don't call me for years and when you do Yeah, I'll still be here And I'm not saying that the effort is a waste of time, but I Just love you for the things you couldn't change, though you have tried These hours of confusion they will soon expire like Everything does There's never gonna be a moment of truth for you While the world is watching All you need is the thing you've forgotten And that's to learn to live with what you are Sometimes everything you've ever wanted floats above It's stickin' out its tongue and laughing while Everything that anyone could ever need is down below Waiting for you to know this There's never gonna be a moment of truth for you While the world is watching 'Cause all you need is the thing you've forgotten And that's to learn to live with what you are You've got to learn to live with what you are You've got to learn to live with what you are |

Son, look at all the people in this restaurant
What do you think they weigh? Out the window to the parking lot At their SUV's, taking all of the space They give no fuck They talk as loud as they want They give no fuck Just as long as there's enough, for them Gonna get on the microphone down at Wal-Mart Talk about some shit that's been on my mind Talk about the state of this great nation of ours People look to your left, yeah, look to your right They give no fuck They buy as much as they want They give no fuck Just as long as there's enough, for them Son, look at the people lining up for plastic Wouldn't you like to see them in the National Geographic Squatting bare ass in the dirt eating rice from a bowl With a towel on their head and maybe a bone in their nose See that asshole with a peace sign on his license plate? Giving me the finger and running me out of his lane God made us number one 'cause he loves us the best Well he should go bless someone else for a while and give us a rest (They give no) Yeah, and everyone can see (They give no) We've eaten all that we can eat |

Pale, pubescent beasts
Roam through the streets And coffee shops Their prey gather in herds Of stiff knee-length skirts And white ankle-socks But while they search for a mate My type hibernate In bedrooms above Composing their songs of love Young, uniform minds In uniform lines And uniform ties Run 'round With trousers on fire And signs of desire They cannot disguise While I try to find words As light as the birds That circle above To put in my songs of love Fate doesn't hang on a wrong or right choice Fortune depends on the tone of your voice So sing while you have time Let the sun shine down from above And fill you with songs of love Fate doesn't hang on a wrong or right choice Fortune depends on the tone of your voice So sing while we still can While the sun hangs high up above Wonderful songs of love Beautiful songs of love Beautiful songs of love |
