Coming of age during the plague
Of reagan and bush
Watching capitalism gun down democracy
It had this funny effect on me
I guess
I am cancer
I am HIV
And I am down at the blue jesus
Blue cross hospital
Just lookin' up from my pillow
Feeling blessed
And the mighty multinationals
Have monopolized the oxygen
So it's as easy as breathing
For us all to participate
Yes they're buying and selling
Off shares of air
And you know it's all around you
But it's hard to point and say "there"
So you just sit on your hands
And quietly contemplate
Your next bold move
The next thing you're gonna have to prove
To yourself
What a waste of thumbs that are opposable
To make machines that are disposable
And sell them to seagulls flying in circles
Around one big right wing
Yes, the left wing was broken long ago
By the slingshot of cointelpro
And now it's so hard to have faith in
Anything
Especially your next bold move
Or the next thing you're gonna need to prove
To yourself
You want to track each trickle
Back to its source
And then scream up the faucet
'Til your face is hoarse
Cuz you're surrounded by a world's worth
Of things you just can't excuse
But you've got the hard cough of a chain smoker
And you're at the arctic circle playing strip poker
And it's getting colder and colder
Everytime you lose
So go ahead
Make your next bold move
Tell us
What's the next thing you're gonna have to prove
To yourself
Of reagan and bush
Watching capitalism gun down democracy
It had this funny effect on me
I guess
I am cancer
I am HIV
And I am down at the blue jesus
Blue cross hospital
Just lookin' up from my pillow
Feeling blessed
And the mighty multinationals
Have monopolized the oxygen
So it's as easy as breathing
For us all to participate
Yes they're buying and selling
Off shares of air
And you know it's all around you
But it's hard to point and say "there"
So you just sit on your hands
And quietly contemplate
Your next bold move
The next thing you're gonna have to prove
To yourself
What a waste of thumbs that are opposable
To make machines that are disposable
And sell them to seagulls flying in circles
Around one big right wing
Yes, the left wing was broken long ago
By the slingshot of cointelpro
And now it's so hard to have faith in
Anything
Especially your next bold move
Or the next thing you're gonna need to prove
To yourself
You want to track each trickle
Back to its source
And then scream up the faucet
'Til your face is hoarse
Cuz you're surrounded by a world's worth
Of things you just can't excuse
But you've got the hard cough of a chain smoker
And you're at the arctic circle playing strip poker
And it's getting colder and colder
Everytime you lose
So go ahead
Make your next bold move
Tell us
What's the next thing you're gonna have to prove
To yourself
