political aspirations have never been

that high on your list

your minimal contributions are enough

to win the smiles of some

if your self made institutions are

not enough to save your face

then maybe you will be around

for the next punk rock band from the States

You are a knob

it's your together disposition

can't cover your lack of conviction

it's easy to be funny when

the jokes are all you've got

and if you year old contradictions

are not enough to bring you down

then maybe you will be around

to write another fucking song

about vivisection

You are a knob

I see your face in the crowd,

stand up proud

I cry out loud... you are a knob

it's your conceited propositions

why don't you let me count the reasons

it's difficult to swallow when

your mouth is so clamped shut and

if day old contributions are not enough

to break your back

then maybe you will be around

to witness what you have and what you lack
