$elling Tear$ (Selling Tears) Lyrics

Don't ask too many questions
We don't want none of your suggestions
Can't you see we're trying to run a country
Well this ain't no easy job
We got a lot of things to think about
We're pretty sure that you wouldn't understand

So take it from us, we know what's best
We've got some information that we can't release

Take my word as politician
We need every ounce of that ammunition
We're gonna make the economy grow
Defend democracy in Texaco?
Gotta remember what wrong and right is
We all have to make some sacrifices
So be afraid but don't worry too much
Just sit back and leave it to us

Well I hear a few of you think this ain't a good idea
It's a good thing we don't have to listen to you
Because one thing I've learnt along the way is that democracy is not much more than the lies they tell at school

So take it from us, we know what's best
I've got some information that you can't release

Take my word as politician
We need every ounce of that ammunition
We're gonna make the economy grow
Defend democracy in Texaco?
Gotta remember what wrong and right is
We all have to make some sacrifices
So be afraid but don't worry too much
Just sit back and leave it to us

And if you would tend to disagree
We have our very own Article 43
And you can disappear, it's so easy
When the country is in fear
And the press will just shut their ears
They're too busy selling tears

Don't green cross, they're flashing that God damn yellow scroll telling lies?
You're American-flag-waving, telling me who the good guys and the bad guys are
And what to buy
You tell me what to buy
But I ain't buying your shit anymore

On behalf of the President I'd like to thank you all for voicing your opinions
You're all really cute
It's a good thing the cops kept you all in line
And threw tear gas bombs from their hazmat suits
It's only normal terroist inception
They're only there for your protection
We'd sure appreciate your vote in the election
We are only human too
We make mistakes just like you.
