|
face the nation |
|
|
|
My
mind is finally clearing |
|
What
is this sound I'm hearing? |
|
Chainsaws
on bone and gristle |
|
Carving
out a new epistle |
|
I've
got my pencil sharpened |
|
I
will not be disheartened |
|
I
won't be disenchanted |
|
Even
though the news is slanted |
|
|
|
Face
the nation |
|
Face
the nation |
|
Face
the nation |
|
|
|
I
see you shaping nooses |
|
Sixty
minutes of excuses |
|
Airwaves
and wire service |
|
Trying
to make me nervous |
|
Your
problem's overrated |
|
Your
headaches are inflated |
|
No
talk now, only chatter |
|
Little
chipmunk, what's the matter? |
|
|
|
Face
the nation |
|
Face
the nation |
|
Face
the nation |
|
|
|
I'm
entertaining notions |
|
Propelled
by raw emotions |
|
Put
down your Time and Newsweek |
|
Listen
to me when I speak |
|
There
is no pulse to finger |
|
No
waves of grain to bring her |
|
No
purple mountain story |
|
And
no epoch of glory |
|
|
|
Face
the nation |
|
Face
the nation |
|
Face
the nation |
