BULLSHIT

Larry Lucas

 

People on the planet got a look in their eye,

Everybody looking like they're ready to cry,

Looking for the sun when they can't see the sky,

Everybody living a lie..

Me and Uncle Rumple we were wondering why

Everybody stoned but nobody high,

Chomping and a choking on that gospel pie,

Everybody got an alibi.

 

Chorus:

It's all bullshit, it's all bullshit,

just a little bit of that good old (preacher, military, honky) jive,

It's all bullshit, it's all bullshit,

And it ain't fooling me, ain't fooling you

It's just a two-bit bullshit lie.

 

People getting greedy, gotta have more,

Living on time that they really can't afford,

Treating mother nature like a kicked in door

And there's nobody keeping the score.

Me and Uncle Rumple, well we've been there before,

What the heck is everybody doing that for,

They gotta make a little money so they make a little war,

And they do it in the name of the lord.

 

Chorus

 

The federali government is robbing you blind,

Local politician isn't very far behind,

Poor folks dollar buys the rich man's wine

And they got you working overtime

Freedom is a word they hold up tall,

To make you think you're getting something for it all.

Wolves are gonna holler and the pigs are gonna fall,

And the writing's on the bathroom wall.

 

Chorus
