COMPLAINERS

Image hosted by Photobucket.com


You’ve seen them in the coffee shops
You’ve heard them on the news
You’ve read them going on and on
You wish they’d take up booze

You know them when you see them
They have nothing nice to say
All they do is complain and complain
They never go away

Everything’s a tragedy
Everything’s a curse
Everything’s not getting better
Everything is getting worse
Complainers!
Complainers!
All you do is bitch and moan
Complainers!
Complainers!
I paid for this microphone

Take away contraception
Take the women’s right to vote
Let’s poke a thousand holes
In this democratic boat

Let’s drill in North Alaska
Let’s strip mine in the west
Let’s put Jesus on the dollar
Shut up, we know what’s best

Everything’s a tragedy
Everything’s a curse
Everything’s not getting better
Everything is getting worse
Complainers!
Complainers!
All you do is bitch and moan
Complainers!
Complainers!
I paid for this microphone

I made a billion in oil
Made another ton in gas
I cut a couple corners
Who wants to be last?

We killed a hundred thousand
In a land far, far away
If we hadn’t killed them
They’d be complaining here today

Everything’s a tragedy
Everything’s a curse
Everything’s not getting better
Everything is getting worse
Complainers!
Complainers!
All you do is bitch and moan
Complainers!
Complainers!
I paid for this microphone

We have a plan for us
For all the brave and the true
We’ll make a lot of money, friend
It’s what we like to do

We’ll take America
Into the great beyond
Armageddon, brothers
Armageddon is on!

Everything’s a tragedy
Everything’s a curse
Everything’s not getting better
Everything is getting worse
Complainers!
Complainers!
All you do is bitch and moan
Complainers!
Complainers!
I paid for this microphone

You’ve seen them in the coffee shops
You’ve heard them on the news
You’ve read them going on and on
You wish they’d take up booze

You know them when you see them
They have nothing nice to say
All they do is complain and complain
They never go away

Another good one. But I can dig it if you're getting sick of being locked up inside a meter, even though I'm not convinced that all the other stuff is unsingable.

Write on!
Yeah, well, speaking as a lifelong incessant complainer --- it's not, "I bitch, therefore I am..." it's "I bitch because sometimes IT WORKS."
