Man-Sized Wreath |
| Turn on the TV and what do I see? |
| A pageantry of empty gestures all lined up for me — wow! |
| I’d have thought by now we would be ready to proceed |
| But a tearful hymn to tug the heart |
| And a man-sized wreath — ow! |
| Throw it on the fire |
| Throw it in the air |
| Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care, oh |
| Give me some |
| Wave the palms, steal the alms, fists in the air |
| A motorcade up Ninth Street shows the people that you care — ow! |
| Nature abhors a vacuum but what’s between your ears? |
| Your judgement clouded with fearful thoughts |
| A headlights and a deer — ow! |
| Throw it on the fire |
| Throw it in the air |
| Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care |
| Look what I’ve found |
| Everybody look around |
| Everybody looking like they just don’t care, oh |
| Give me some |
| Well I’m not deceived by pomp and odious conceit |
| But a tearful hymn to tug the heart |
| And a man-sized wreath-ow! |
| Throw it on the fire |
| Throw it in the air |
| Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care |
| Look what I’ve found |
| Everybody look around |
| Everybody looking like they just don’t care |
| Throw it on the fire |
| Throw it in the air |
| Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care, oh |
| Give me some |
| Give me some |
| Give me some |
