Hesitating Nation |
I don’t really even want to know you |
With your backstage wisdom like a boarded up window |
Who are we to go and make big plans? |
Married in a fever, children in a panic |
Deep sea diver, advertising ruin |
With the underwater fire, state sponsored pollution |
Closing our eyes, blindly to town |
Hoping that Mama does not see us now |
We’ve become the world’s first millionaires |
You know, the ones who just don’t care |
Can’t even taste it but it’s really nothing new |
And it smells of compromise with subtle hints of confusion |
Holidays are working days to us now |
We are lifting dead weight and embracing self-doubt |
The shirt with the wine stain, the car is not running |
A policeman laughs but it’s really not funny |
Who will save me when I’m feeling this down |
All God’s children are useless to me now |
We have come for solitary fun, debonair |
You know, for the ones who just don’t care |
All of the innocents we’ve yet to cast out |
In a hesitating nation on the way to nervous breakdown |
In a certain way, I’m sitting pretty now |
I’ve got a hundred dollar bill to plug the politician’s mouth |
It’s written in the paper, there’s a fever taking hold |
And now it’s everyone gather 'round the toilet bowl |
What a shame, and what a letdown |
You will be dead before the bottom drops out |
All is well so long as you say your little prayers |
You know, for the ones who just don’t care |
When you are the one who didn’t care |
And you are the one who just don’t care |
