The Joke's On You

歌詞

My, well isn't that mighty wonderful baggage miss? Remember when that sentiment was meant for bellmen busting their backs for tips? It's sad that it's glamorous to have the chicks With the ugliest damages in front of these cameras How many shows do you know boast underfed famine-ists And hosts of overweight folks who don't get enough of the sandwiches? It doesn't attract interest seeing someone amass riches Or coming to grasp fitness even half as much as the crash pictures It's a crass sickness isn't it? How many meritless heiresses will it take To bury America's head in the sand or ever embarrass us? The difference between 'em and tweens wishing to be 'em Is whether or not these idiots ever get jobs, they get an inheritance But everyone's doing it, so what's not to like? Get your fame and your shame on under helicopter lights It's not okay. It's not alright We're all gonna rot inside from the crap that we watch all night But the joke's on you That's what they want you to do Let's not open our eyes Till it's too late to choose What a lucky bunch of little brats just look at the times we live in The lives we're living almost seem like we took 'em from science fiction But is anyone happier? Did you find enrichment With more than folks before but you're just doing more crying and bitching? Won't all the guys be smitten when you finally fit in The size you did when you were six and all thanks to that fine physician? Don't you know trying is sickening and caring is uncool? Think of all the television time that you can spare from a dunce stool Staring at some foolhardy parent who hardly cares a Bit if her kid ever does school if she wins some darn tiara And the part that's scarier is the "everyone look at me!" chant That makes some cruel smarty pants kid say he was a fan of a shooting spree Something must have rot away. Someone must have got their price Everyone has got theirs, eh, but it was a lot though right? I'm not okay. This is not alright If the plot don't change soon no one's gonna want their life But the joke's on you That's what they want you to do Let's not open our eyes Till it's too late to choose The joke's on you That's what they want you to do Let's not open our eyes Till it's too late to choose
