American Tune
quote:I am white, and I've got everything I need
No one clutches their purses when they're in a room alone with me
And I can drive through any neighborhood I please
At any hour, and the police don't do a thing
So if I see a penny on the ground
I leave it alone or loving flip it
I'm a straight white male in America
I've got all the luck I need
I'm a guy getting paid more than a girl with a degree
And I can walk down the streets after dark, no one wants to rape me
And I can get a girl pregnant, and just as easily flee
Just like my straight white male dad did to me
So if I see a penny on the ground
I leave it alone or loving flip it
I'm a straight white male in America
I've got all the luck I need
I've got a pile of broken mirrors and I'm walking under ladders
And I'm spilling tons of salt because to me that doesn't matter
Because my skin and my gender and my orientation
Are the best things to have when you live in this nation
I recommend it highly
So if I see a penny on the ground
I leave it alone or loving flip it
I'm a straight white male in America
I've got all the luck I need
poo poo's gonna work out for me
I'm a straight white male in America
I got all the luck I need
People II 2: Still Peoplin'
quote: If you've been kicked in or abused or mistreated or misused
You were told there is nowhere to go but up for you
If you've been hurt or you've been betrayed
Or you've been hosed or you've been displaced
You were told it was probably your fault anyway
But when your Hustler subscription and your Xanax prescriptions
Make you feel lonelier instead
You don't want to hear about all those starving children
You don't want to be told it's all in your head
'Cause if it's all in your head, that's terrible
I saw a junkie lying in a puddle of his own blood last week
I saw a cyclist get hit by a car
I saw a homeless guy chug a bottle of mouthwash on Christmas Eve
No, you can never fall too far
You can buy a salad glove, you can buy an iPod
And you can sell that poo poo to Bookmans when your wife dies and you lose your job
You can hope it gets better, you can follow your dreams
But hope is for presidents and dreams are for people who are sleeping
My friend Erin says, "at best, we're all two or three bad decisions away
from becoming the ones that we fear and pity"
And Tony says it's important to bear some witness when you can
And that's not hard to do in the city that I live in
You don't have it any better, you don't have it any worse
You're an irreplaceable human soul with your own understanding of what it means to suffer
And that's a huge bummer
