People II: The Reckoning

Nobody knows everything, we know this to be true Everything is difficult, except what's in front of you But it's complicated even under your nose Bullshit math equations, and your highs and your lows And your manic depression, it comes and it goes Your parasympathetic nervous system reacts And you're in fight or flight mode How's the world so small when the world is so large? And what made the world? Could I please speak to who's in charge? Everything is real, but, it's also just as fake From your daughter's birthday party to your grandmother's wake And your bipolar illness, it comes and it goes You parasympathetic nervous system reacts And you're in fight or flight You're in fight or flight You're in fight or flight mode I've tried to know which words to sing so many times And I've tried to know which chords to play And I've tried to make it rhyme And I've tried to find the key that all good songs are in And I've tried to find the notes to make that Great resounding din But there's a bad man in everyone, no matter who we are There's a rapist and a Nazi living in our tiny hearts Child pornographers and cannibals, and politicians too There's someone in your head waiting to fucking strangle you So here's to you, Mrs. Robinson People love you more, oh, never mind, oh, never mind In fucking fact, Mrs. Robinson The world won't care whether you live or die, you live or die In fucking fact, Mrs. Robinson They probably hate to see your stupid face, your stupid face So here's to you, Mrs. Robinson You live in an unforgiving place
