Any chimp can play human for a day |
| [00:12.74] |
And use his opposable thumbs to iron his uniform; |
| [00:17.03] |
And run for office on election day; |
| [00:21.20] |
And fancy himself a real decision maker, |
| [00:24.93] |
Then deploy more troops than salt in a shaker. |
| [00:33.22] |
But it's a jungle when war is made, |
| [00:37.68] |
And you'll panic and throw your own shit at the enemy. |
| [00:41.96] |
The camera pulls back to reveal your true identity. |
| [00:46.42] |
Look, it's a sheep in wolf's clothing, |
| [00:49.67] |
A smoking gun holding ape. |
| [01:00.28] |
Any asshole can open up a museum; |
| [01:03.31] |
Put all of the things he loves on display |
| [01:06.08] |
So everyone can see them. |
| [01:08.06] |
The house, the car, a thoughtful wife; |
| [01:12.48] |
Ordinary moments in his ordinary life. |
| [01:19.85] |
But if she blinks or smiles, she'll give you away; |
| [01:23.76] |
'Cause no one wants to pay to see her happiness. |
| [01:28.15] |
No one wants to pay to see her day to day |
| [01:33.10] |
And i'm not buying it either, |
| [01:34.98] |
But i'll try selling it anyway. |
| [01:55.09] |
Any idiot can play greek for a day |
| [01:57.95] |
And join a sorority or write a tragedy; |
| [02:01.83] |
And articulate all that pain, |
| [02:05.88] |
And maybe you'll get paid. |
| [02:13.88] |
But it's a sin when success complains, |
| [02:17.95] |
And your writers block- it don't mean shit. |
| [02:22.07] |
Just throw it against the wall and see what sticks. |
| [02:27.14] |
Gotta write a hit - i think this is it. |
| [02:30.72] |
It's a hit. |
| [02:37.82] |
And if it's not, |
| [02:39.14] |
Then it's a holiday for a hanging, |
| [02:42.94] |
Yeah it's a holiday for hanging |
| [02:47.03] |
Yeah it's a holiday for hanging, yeah |
| [02:51.72] |
Shoo-bop-shoo-bop my baby |
| [02:56.67] |
Any fool can play executioner for a day, |
| [03:00.29] |
And say with fingers pointed in both directions |
| [03:03.81] |
'He went that way, |
| [03:04.19] |
It's only a switch or syringe, |
| [03:07.04] |
I'm exempt from eternal sins...' |
| [03:12.06] |
But you still wear a cross, |
| [03:16.02] |
And you think you're gonna get in... |
| [03:20.62] |
Ah, but the pardons never come from upstairs; |
| [03:32.37] |
They're always a moment too late, |
| [03:35.86] |
But it's entertainment; keep the crowd on their toes, |
| [03:38.77] |
It's justice, we're safe. |
| [03:40.90] |
It's not a hit, it's a holiday. |
| [03:44.14] |
Shoo-bop-shoo-bop my baby |
| [03:48.08] |
It's a holiday for hanging, yeah |
| [03:51.68] |
It's a holiday for hanging, yeah |
| [03:56.19] |
It's a holiday for hanging, yeah |
| [04:00.59] |
It's a holiday for hanging, yeah |
| [04:04.25] |
I'm a holiday for hanging, |
| [04:05.74] |
I'm a holiday for hanging, |
| [04:08.14] |
I'm a holiday yeah |
| [04:12.30] |
I'm a holiday for hanging, |
| [04:16.35] |
It's a holiday for hanging, yeah |
| [04:20.18] |
