lyrics

These are the workings of the modern human heart
The machines they drive
Faulty and defective
Working hard to ruin someone's day
You know who you are
And you know who you wanted

She's waiting in line and complaining again
Something didn't go her way
And someone's gotta pay

But her husband's at home preaching the words
Of the republican lunatic
Who's writing himself into an Orwell classic

The daughter sold herself to a bunch of greek letters
A philanthropist
She's a torso in a doorframe chanting til the day she dies

With his boots in the ground and his polo shirt tucked in
The brother watches the gates
Red solo cup in hand and an eye on the candy

I'm coming too but they only let gals in


So come on down with your gluten free fruit snacks
And open wide
And sing your politics
When nobody asks

Don't be offended
When you're on the spot
It's our decision
And you're not in control

Give me a break
You're joking right?
Now look at the man
Who walks down the street

And tell me who you think he is
I know you'll see strange
and I know you'll see mean
And I know you'll see every fucking thing

but I'll stand looking down on you
who's lost it all, and lost what's next
and lost what never could have been

so dearest friend, i speak to save
give us a break, give us a break
you're nothing like the rest of us

so step on down, down from your head
and quit your childish masquerade
and learn to feel under the skin
and learn to hide what ends our time
we're all defective and alive

the truest man sees who you are
and not who you wish you could be,

the truest man sees who you are
and not what they think you ought to be
