lyrics

I been feeling symptomatic
Something’s ‘bout to start to happen
Fetch a bag and grab some napkins
Maybe a prophylactic
Summon a sense of action
Stow your bags, batten the hatches
Kiss your moms and hug your dadses
I’ve got something to say
To say in my own way

Cuz lately things are feeling crazy
See it in the news like daily
People scared and cravin’ safety
Emotions high and facts get hazy
State of the Nation: complaining
Each side of the aisle’s insane
And we got to start rearranging
But how can we effect change when
New show on TV
An app for my needs
Do not disturb please
Ohh yeah this couch is comfy
Aren’t you feeling free?
Free to be lazy?
New car, new phone, new big screen
Maybe just like being angry?

Cuz every single screen is screaming at me ‘bout some kind of enemy
And every click and poke and push
I feel a buzz and get a rush
Thinking back to halcyon days before invisible waves

Met a man with Grand Ole Party
Some of my friends acted strangely
Listening to him intently
Not just waiting their turn to speak
When they did, they kept it friendly
While still being contradicting
Found some ground on which to agree
And kept the conversation moving
It ended with them still differing
But it ended amicably
With a deeper understanding of how the other side was feeling
It was fucking crazy
Dude owns an AR-15
Not something I would carry
But I think they’re chilling next week
Don’t think he’s bringing the gun though

But still it’s feeling like
Every single screen is screaming at me ‘bout some kind of enemy
And every click and poke and push
I feel a buzz and get a rush
Thinking back to halcyon days before invisible waves
