You Are A Knob

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
strong enough to save your face
then maybe you'll be around
for the next punk rock band from the States
Because

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 that you've got
and if your day old contradictions
are not enough to shut you up
then maybe you will be around
to write another fucking song
about vivisection

You are a knob
You are a knob (annoying mother fuckers that you can't ignore)
I see your face in the crowd,
stand up proud
I cry out loud

It's your conceited propositions
why don't you let me count the reasons
it's difficult to swallow when
my mouth is so clamped shut
when your day old contradictions are not enough
to break your back
then maybe you will be around
to witness what you have and what you lack

You are a knob
You are a knob
You are a knob (annoying mother fuckers that you can't ignore)
