about

Lyrics by Kenton Hall
Music by Kenton Hall, Marion Fleetwood & Brett Richardson

lyrics

You say your life is complicated
And you need to take a break
From all of your responsibilities
Oh, for fuck’s sake
You say nothing worked out quite the way you planned
And sometimes you feel like such a fake
Daddy’s more to blame than you are
Oh, for fuck’s sake

You say that you’re just trying to do your best
Guess we’d better pin a medal on your chest

You say that the world has gone to Hell
And it’s up to you to set it straight
‘Cause some hippie came a cropper for your sins
For fuck’s sake
You stand up for “family values”, so
I guess you must have earned the right to hate
The countless things that you don’t understand
Oh, for fuck’s sake

You must sleep soundly, knowing God is on your side
Eyes shut tightly as you’re taken for a ride

Did it never occur to you not to be
Such ludicrous, pointless non-entities?
I mean, for fuck’s sake, just look what you’ve done to me

I fight the good fight valiantly
I’ve always got my little point to make
If they would only pay attention to me,
Oh, for fuck’s sake
I’m such a goddamn visionary
I rant and I pontificate
If only I had just been laid more often
Oh, for fuck’s sake

If there’s a grip to get, it’s probably round my throat
At least I’m confident you’ll find the time to gloat
