Whistle blowers gotta get outta school
|
They don't want poets, they want pigeons on a stool
|
You're examining fossils, defending criminals
|
I'm clock watching, getting dumb
|
Photographing models a house painter's solace
|
I'm like sisyphus in the sun
|
|
And I give up
|
Raising your kids America
|
You treat 'em like an obligation
|
Welcome to the occupation
|
|
The devil's in the details, devil's in the details
|
He's got your gold watch and chain
|
The devil's in the details, devil's in the details
|
He's got your gold watch and chain
|
|
Whistle blowers, we know how you feel
|
Public servants surrender their free will
|
But you can't be in politics and work in the circus
|
You have to choose just one
|
You hold the nail, I'll swing the hammer
|
That's how things get done
|
|
But goodbye valedictorians, goodbye punks
|
Goodbye valedictorians, goodbye punks
|
|
And I give up
|
Raising your kids America
|
You treat 'em like an obligation
|
Welcome to the occupation
|
|
The devil's in the details, devil's in the details
|
He's got your gold watch and chain
|
The devil's in the details, devil's in the details
|
Got your gold watch and chain
|
