Au Contraire

from Just Another Pigeon by Michael Psycho

/

lyrics

You say you’re sick and tired

Of government as usual

I’m sick of you

And all the foolish shit you do

You have a chance to show

Some true responsibility

You’re fuckin’ blowing it

Your vote’s a tragedy

You think you took a stand

But really you were led

You let yourself get used

Now you’re a pawn instead

I wish to God that someone

Could display some common sense

But I won’t kid myself

That’s not the present tense

You bought the lies and games

And happily had played along

You think you changed the station

But it plays the same old song

The grassroots movement

Wasn’t really there and run by those who

Used you just to get more power

Now they can laugh at you

Your blind stupidity helped to

Preserve the status quo

But why feel any guilt

Aw Hell, you didn’t know

The greedy interests are grateful

That you bought the sting

When things get even worse

You can’t recall anything



You are all suckers

You are all suckers

You are all suckers

And only have yourselves to blame
