Is this some exotic dance designed to placate the court?
Projectile chundering out all these words, but you’re saying nothing
Facetious barbs so bleak
Reheat, resell the shit you’ve bought
You’re not listening, just waiting for your turn to talk

Now think a thing you don’t say out loud
Ploughing through, taking the easy route
We were lost but now we’re all clowns
Honking noses and serving up the lowest hanging fruit

Come on!
You're supposed to bite but your teeth aren’t sharp enough
Punch up!
Right up on your pedestal but still you’re saying nothing
Ah, fuck! The state of this
Glib earworms rattle in my head
Cringing, I’m pleading
Nothing more, I beg you, make it all stop!

A satire of ourselves
But who’s laughing?
Pathetic, pointless
Are you proud of yourselves?
Quick-cash clickbait content, and little else

Maybe I'm asking too much but both sides aren't to blame
Conflating wrong and righteous - they’re not the same

Now think a thing
A thing you don’t say

Think a thing you don’t say out loud
Throwing shit at the wall and it all stinks
We were lost but now we’re all clowns
Mistreating elephants and serving up the lowest-hanging fruit
