lyrics

(i)
Static, dad's trailing off again
Static, indelibly etched
Static, criss-cross, criss-cross
It's only 9 PM and we're all ten-, ten-, tense
Or maybe just a little red from being red?
You're blue, he's green, she's red
Angry? Embarrassed?
Agitated and pacing from certain discomforting revelations?
Feign interest for ninety seconds
Or indulge in the nine million possibilities imprinted in your ass?

No shit?

(ii)
Heroes spun out puds who fucking flub it
Scrubbed 'til you can't catch three decades of forced adjustment
Wal-mart greeters putter closer, keep tabs on favorite brands of bread
While the fawning nation ignores another American father and son laid dead

Shock!
Awe!
No shit, no shit
No shit, no shit, no shit

Who can't help but change the subject?
Who tanked a generation?
Who abandoned those they'd orphaned to the first family'd fucking take 'em?
Whose mouth made a promise to watch another take it back
And mutters a steady stream of slurs as the screen click-clacks to black?

Shock!
Awe!
No shit, no shit
No shit, no shit, no shit

(i)(Nobody wants to be the fucker who ruined it for everybody else)
(ii)(How many times does 3,000 go into 350,000? 5 into 2,100? How many times can you stick your nose in someone else's business before you come up with shit on it?)
