Compared To What

[00:10.19] Said I love the lie, lie the love
[00:14.81] Hangin' on, with a push and shove
[00:20.40] Possession is the motivation
[00:24.92] Hangin' up the whole damn nation
[00:29.39] Looks like we always end up in a rut
[00:37.26] Tryin' to make it real, but compared to what?
[00:48.02] Slaughterhouse is killin' hogs
[00:52.43] Twisted children are killin' frogs
[00:57.05] Poor dumb rednecks rollin' logs
[01:01.70] Tired old ladies are kissin' dogs
[01:06.31] And I hate that human love that stinkin' mutt

[01:50.03] Tryin' to make it real, but compared to what?
[02:00.02] Got to church on Sunday, sleep and nod
[02:05.03] Tryin' to duck the wrath of God
[02:09.21] Preacher's fillin' us with fright
[02:13.94] Telling us what he thinks is right
[02:18.49] But he must be some kind of stupid nut
[02:25.41] He tries to make it real
[02:29.69] Try to make it real, yeah
[02:33.69] Tryin' to make it real, real, real
[02:38.45] Tryin' to make it real, real, real, yeah
[02:47.44] Tryin' to make it real, yeah
[02:53.29] Real, real, real, real
[02:56.94] Tryin' to make it real
[03:00.41] Tryin' to make it real, yeah
[03:06.49] But where's that bee and where's their honey?
[03:10.95] Where's my God and where's my money?
[03:15.32] Unreal values, crass distortion
[03:19.52] Unwed mothers need abortion
[03:23.84] And it kind of brings to mind

[03:58.24] Said I love the lie, lie the love
[04:02.49] Hangin' on with a push and shove
