Goodtime Activist

I have a problem with people

Who point out the modern evils

Whether pointing at a steeple

Or at their governmental weasles

But, please don't misunderstand

Because I think dissent is healthy

But dissent is never spent

And comfort belongs to the wealthy

Selfish politics are being pushed

And sold to the consumer

Where the glory is the person, not the cause

Let's see how many buttons

And t-shirts we can sell

Before they find that our statistics have been flawed

So your candidate won

But there's a war going on

No, there's several and they're clawing at your soul

See, we've broken into teams

To forget about the issues

And there's nothing left to fill the gaping hole

Sold to the highest bidder!

We're back in the swing of dreams

I'm so damned inspired

That I'll join your scene

Fiends for distractions

Actions speak softly

Words scream the loudest

When they're meaningless and costly

Often, I cry at night

Because I have nothing to cry about

Sometimes I die of fright

When no one seems to hear me out

Let's start a pie fight

World hunger, we'll forget about

Turn off the night light

And go to sleep without a sound

That's what they want from you

To lay down and take it

And if you want climax

You'll just have to fake it

Because sex is so fun when you're completely dishonest

And America's been fucked by the best

They wear lapel pins just to prove that they're modest

But beg you to rip off their vest

Chest exposed

Wardrobe malfunction

But don't disrupt their prayer luncheon

Here, munchkin!

Snack on this for a while

Daddy's got to make the trial

We're serving up death sentences and doing it in style

So keep on paying your taxes

Because I swear if you don't that we won't stay our axes

I swear if you don't that we won't check our faxes

Then can we sound mute?

I swear, when your mouth is shut, you look so cute

But I'll give you an excuse

And a little horn to toot

And every four years you can blow it
