This song was written by Steph and Mart in January 1997. Our friend Eric play keys on this one. The bridge has a cool Surf vibe.
lyrics
You elect the government so quickly,
And now you criticize them
You don't know about the fact
That you are bleeding
Independent state of mind
Is driving you way out of line
Should they always have to end this way?
I've got my two feet on the ground
My face is up and lookin' down
You can't decide on what to do
What is wrong and what is true
Think about it now,
The situation isn't out of hand
Reelected assholes
Keep on drinking on your blood
Keep it up your hang time is in debt
Towards the social cause
Talk it out, your point of view
Might see it's way to them
