Frail Grasp On The Big Picture |
| Well, ain’t it a shame |
| 'bout our short little memory? |
| Never seem to learn |
| The lessons of history |
| We keep making the same mistakes |
| Over and over and over and over again |
| And then we wonder why |
| We’re in the shape we’re in |
| Good old boys down at the bar |
| Peanuts and politics |
| They think they know it all |
| They don’t know much of nothing |
| Even if one of them was to read a newspaper |
| Cover-to-cover |
| That ain’t what’s going on |
| Journalism dead and gone |
| Frail grasp on the big picture |
| Light fading and the fog is getting thicker |
| It’s a frail grasp on the big picture |
| Dark ages |
| You, my love-drunk friend |
| All that red wine and candlelight |
| Soulful conversations |
| That go on until the dawn |
| How many times can you tell your story? |
| How many hangovers can you endure |
| Just to get some snuggling done? |
| You’re living in a hormone dream |
| You don’t have the slightest notion |
| What long-term love is all about |
| All your romantic liaisons |
| Don’t deal with eternal questions like |
| «Who left the cap off the freaking toothpaste?» |
| «Whose turn to take the garbage out?» |
| Frail grasp on the big picture |
| You keep on rubbing and you’re gonna get a blister |
| It’s a frail grasp on the big picture |
| And I’ve seen it all before |
| And we pray to our Lord |
| Who we know is American |
| He reigns from on high |
| He speaks to us through middlemen |
| And he shepherds his flock |
| We sing out and we praise His name |
| He supports us in war |
| He presides over football games |
| And the right will prevail |
| All our troubles shall be resolved |
| We have faith above all |
| Unless there’s money or sex involved |
| Frail grasp on the big picture (Nobody) |
| Nobody’s calling and they’re roughing up the kicker |
| It’s a frail grasp on the big picture |
| Heaven help us |
| Frail grasp on the big picture |
| All waiting for that miracle elixir |
| It’s a frail grasp on the big picture |
| I don’t wonder anymore |
| Frail grasp on the big picture (Somebody) |
| You brought her here so go ahead and kiss her |
| It’s a frail grasp on the big picture |
| Frail grasp on the big picture (Hold on, hold on) |
| Light fading and the fog is getting thicker |
| It’s a frail grasp on the big picture |
| Frail grasp on the big picture |
| Frail grasp on the big picture |
