Not What I'm Here For

all this fussin' and fightin'
pointin' to the video
he said...she said
what damage did they do?
the people have spoken
they've spoken loud and clear
predictions are given
it's the future we should fear
all of this drivel
runnin' down the wire
not what i'm here for

all these fugitive governors
runnin' to the talk show
she said he said
what bad thing did i do?
the losers are angry
they want to turn around
their vision of the future
we're headed straight for down
all of this drivel
runnin' through the ether
not what i'm here for

someone sing me out of here
i don't know what to do
the rush is on to hate
things we never knew

all this pushin' and shovin'
jockey for position
he said...she said
the next time will we do
other things other ways
the people just don't see
we're comin' to save them
with our own reality
all of this drivel
shinin' on my TeeVee
not what i'm here for
