Fiscal Cliff
Kevin Devine feat. The Goddamn Band
Talkin' shit about a 'fiscal cliff' A lot of effort at imagining A situation, even a crisis Just a distraction from the main event: They gave you credit Then cut your card up Gave you a student loan but there's no work Gave you a mortgage Then took your house keys And somehow, you keep saying, 'Thank you, sir' If you're angry, well, I'm angry, too And I talk to myself like I know you do And I've been hiding in my laptop, too But in my mirror, I see you In my mirror, I see a movement Let's move But talkin' shit about the '1%' Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Well, that isn't gonna get you anything It's another slogan - it's been co-opted! It's just a clever bit of marketing Who needs the tanks when we hand it over? Who needs a beacon if you're fine with fog? Whatever this is, it isn't working It's not an argument It's nothing (It's not) If you're angry, well, I'm angry, too And I talk to myself like I know you do And I've been hiding in my laptop, too But in my mirror, I see you In my mirror, I see a movement You gotta marvel at the magic trick That makes us choose against our interests
