[Verse]
EmWell sit atop a mountain
Listen with a soup can
DIn the south he's not a liar
Just the leader of a bad band
CThat in Europe get together and in secret praise the people
EmMy grandad fought in the lowlands
At the Scheldt got shot to pieces
DSo they could rehash their allegiance to a national convenience
CThat preys on easy difference
You know fear it's just a weakness
EmAnd yeah, Dit's been oCne of them years Em
EmThe poor they're there to pity
But only from a distance
DPull on your tender heart strings
The price of an every day existence
CEmma Lazarus was wrong
Fuck your teeming huddled parasitics
EmSomehow kids from Nicaragua well they're invading West Virginia
DMaybe they're looking for Ollie North
Maybe what you got you get it in you
CI seem to remember things that mattered
That no longer count as anything
EmAnd yeah, Dit's been oCne of them years Em
EmOh the sea ain't really rising, baby
You're just getting shorter
DNever mind the science
Them vaccinations cause dysphoria
CAnd them pictures of the planet
Are doctored so it looks like a Emplace akin to heaven
But only from a distance
DNobody likes your headscarf but they wear masks in the resistance
CEither way forget the answers since we've perfected pointing fingers
EmAnd yeah, Dit's been oCne of them years Em
[Verse]
EmYou can only fool the people
The other half the time we're sleeping
DSo that's pretty much the bag
And bag men never want for reasons
CSo drinks are on the house cause the house always wins
And baby you know that I've Emwasted a lot of time
A lot of time just thinking
DWhen thinking's overrated compared to reactionary blinking
CSo I'm just sitting here reflecting on the things I could've done
EmAnd yeah, Dit's been oCne of them years Em
EmAnd yeah, Dit's been oCne of them years Em
EmSit atop a mountain
Listen with a soup can
DFor a distant whistle
Buy a dog so he can
CAnd yeah,D it's been Cone of them yearsEm
