Lyrics

[Intro]

Raise your glass

To the great and wise

Says the man on the screen

With rehearsed blue eyes

[Verse 1]

He pats our heads

"You're safe

You're fine"

Sells us rain

While we stand in sunshine

"We care so much"

He sighs on cue

As the rent jumps higher

Than the tax on brew

[Chorus]

Common sense at the bottom of the glass

My friend

Compassion on tap but it never seems to blend

They say

"It's in your head"

While they're counting what we spend

Are we mad

Are we blind

Or just easy to pretend?

[Verse 2]

She smiles wide

On the evening show

"Hard times

Tough calls

Hope you all still glow"

Blames our nerves

For the cracks in the street

"Must be stress"

Not the shoes on our feet

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

[whispered vocals] "Calm down

Calm down

You're overreacting"

[louder] But the bills stack high

And the schools keep lacking

"We'd love to help"

While they drain one more cup

"It's all in your mind"

As the prices go up

Go up

[Chorus]
