lyrics

There’s a closed mind with an axe to grind
And he don’t like my kind.
He’s on a high horse, he’s out of sorts,
Painting the world in big bold lines.
He shakes his finger. He wags his tongue.
And the people applaud like he speaks for God,
But the thing about being so right is you might be wrong.

We’re the United States, because we love to hate
The other party’s candidate.
Light a fire underneath the choir and let’s call it national debate.
Read my bumper. Get off of my lawn.
I’m the righteous kind, I’ve got half a mind,
And the thing about me being right is you being wrong.

Saddle up your high horse, and ride off in the sun.
Shoulder up your banner, because the battle has begun.
There’s a bomb in a suitcase. There’s a kid with a gun.
There’s a clean-cut guy in a suit and tie
In the toxic glow of a talk show
And the only thing he don’t know is he might be wrong.
