lyrics

I saw your picture in the paper. I saw your image on t.v. You’ve lost your bright-eyed optimism. You’ve lost your dear integrity.
You used to really listen and you stuck to your own guns. You fought the good fight faithfully til you found out how it’s done.
I caught you in our bed with big business, and I hear you bend over for special interests. How can I ever trust when you betray? You go and tell me one thing and when I look the other way …
There’s Big Fat Garbage coming out of your mouth!
So choose the less of two vast evils. Choose but either way you lose.
You prey upon our fears with your big promises. Just fight the war on terrorists, your new communists.
Cause absolute power corrupts … absolutely and it’s never enough. I won’t shut up and shop, screw your puppet show. But maybe you should shop for a shiny new soul?
Cause there’s Big Fat Garbage coming out of your mouth!
