lyrics

It was all supposed to be so easy,
color by number sailboat breezy.
You don't need a plan don't gotta look down at your hand
just gotta keep that bottle tan so you don't look like you're older.
You said we always would be winning
the bigger your purse the less your sinning.
Caught between a vision of a version of reality where
he who barks the loudest is the credible creature.
You said the old machine was boring..
it was raining then but now its pouring.
The oceans getting higher and the rivers getting higher
unicycling 'tween twin towers up on a wire...
might I inquire?
Why we're draining the swamp and building a quagmire?
Whats your desire?
Ever widening waist gold plated pacifier...
for the satire empire, overwhelming opulence
you're making me perspire..
It was all supposed to be so easy
never thought you'd dress like a sleazy tv pastor.
Stupid muddy pig why don't you give me a straight answer?
Sold the world a cure but I consider you a cancer..

This is real not entertainment can't you see we're running out of time?
Kidnapped children separated hidden under silver blanket lies.
Beat me senseless hang me upside down then pray till I apologize
thats why I put my cigarette up to the fuse and then commit
the fire crime.

It was all supposed to be so easy
could have been so much better...
but this is a disaster.
