lyrics

Can't fit my dreams into a ballot box
No ballot box is big enough to contain them all
Can't keep my hands off what I want and what I want I can't afford

my stomach knows better than your charts what crisis means
been living the crisis all my life
almost got used to it

bumming cigarettes
and cursing under my breath
I saw how you clean up
all the mess you've made

yeah, I saw you put broken cups back on the shelf
yeah I saw you sweep under the rug all what was left

ain't got a table in the VIP room
in the brand new world they are all booked by you
I don't really need it, I don't really care
don't want to sit there when it falls apart, I don't want to be there

digging in the dumpster
and finding myself
I saw how you clean up
all the mess you made

yeah, I saw you put broken cups back on the shelf
yeah I saw you sweep under the rug all what was left
