You're the one givin' up the love
Anytime he needs it
But you turn your back, and then he's off and runnin' with the crowd
You're the one to sacrifice
Anything to please him
Do you really think he thinks about you when he's out?

Now do Kyle Rittenhouse, who took his gun to a protest, killed people and Trump and his cult praised him as a hero. Get it? Guns are only for his supporters.

And now you tell me that you're having my baby
I'll tell you that I'm happy if you want me to
But one step further and my back will break
If my best isn't good enough, then how can it be good enough for two?

Ben Shapiro is about as far from the white working class as you can get and still live in the same universe.

Workin' so hard like a soldier
Can't afford a thing on TV
Deep in my heart I am warrior
Can't get food for the kid, good God

Have you ever been stabbed in the back
By someone you thought was really cool?
Did they steal your lover, or was it money
Or was it lies they told?
Strangers just disguised as your friends
Never again, 'cause now you know

Just while the Golden Globes were on, he declared himself President of Venezuela, said "disrespecting officers" should get you shot in the face, announced he's investigating the Fed for not obeying him on interest rates which Jerome Powell rightly called out, possibly crashing the stock market. JFC!

Dance in the supermarket
Dig it in the fast lane
Listen to the countdown
They're playing our song again

You want a better kind of future
One that everyone can share
You're not alone, we all could use it
Stick around, we're nearly there

Johnny's playroom
Is a bunker filled with sand
He's become a third world man
Smoky Sunday
He's been mobilized since dawn
Now he's crouching on the lawn
He's a third world man

Ya hate me

Under a blood red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined, the chosen few
The newspaper says, says

Say it's true, it's true
And we can break through
Though torn in two
We can be one

The beer was empty, and our tongues were tired
And running out of things to say
She gave a kiss to me as I got out
And I watched her drive away

Just for a moment, I was back at school
And felt that old familiar pain
And as I turned to make my way back home
The snow turned into rain

Now I'm a jet fuel genius
I can solve the world's problems
Without even trying.
I've got dozens of friends
And the fun never ends
That is, as long as I'm buying.
Is it any wonder I'm not the President.
Is it any wonder I'm null and void.

"But where should we go next?" they said
They killed a tree of 97 years
And smothered it in lights and silver tears
They all got wrecked
They laughed too loud
I started to feel queasy in the crowd
I caught a cab back to my flat
And wept a bit
And fed the cat

My boyfriend said, "It's really sweet the way you go for Christmas cheer."
I said, "We can't afford the tree."
He said, "Love is free."
So we trimmed the cactus with my earrings that we'd meant to pawn.
There wasn't any snow
But there was rain.
He licked me like a candy cane.

"Besides, she's lost her wing," my mother said
"Things fall apart but they never leave my heart."
Good morning, midnight.
It's Christmas.

My mother said, "I'm a survivor
I pull together Christmas every year"
"Something has to last," she said
"Once a year let's have the past."
And then one year to reach up high
To hang an angel from the tree
Became a painful thing

So the graduations hang on the wall
But they never really helped us at all
No they never taught us what was real
Iron and coke
And chromium steel

Once in a century political opportunity here, if only there were a party to claim it

Days go by
Leaving me with a hunger
I could fly
Back to when we were younger
When adventures like cars, we would ride
And the years lied ahead still untried

Young bodies, listen to them talking
New languagism in their veins
Same face in a new situation
The mirrorball holds mesmerised
He looks around, he's the new Clark Gable

I guess I should’ve closed my eyes
When you drove me to the place where your horses run free
‘Cause I felt a little ill when I saw all the pictures
Of the jockeys that were there before me

You play with desire like it was a toy
How much affection can you destroy?

Only when I'm dancing can I feel this free
At night, I lock the doors, where no one else can see
I'm tired of dancing here all by myself
Tonight, I want to dance with someone else

I got no means to show identification
I got no papers show you what I am
You'll have to take me just the way that you find me
What's gone is gone and I do not give a damn

Hey, I'm Fred the Cancerian from New Jersey
I like collecting records and exploring the cave of the unknown!
Hello, I'm Cindy, I'm a Pisces and I like Chihuahuas and Chinese noodles!

I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert
But I can live and breathe and see the sun in wintertime
