THE CURRENT AFFAIR

I've got my reasons

Don't need to explain

Had my share

Of doors shut in my face

I've got no time for hesitation

Don't need anyone in my face

Don't believe in politicians

Or corrupt religions

To guide my way

With the money I pay

The current affair

The victim awaits

The current affair

The innocent, the crime

Borne of society the blame we'll find

Is justice just blind to reality?

Or is it just another conspiracy

To feed the papers

Of the crazy press readers

We did not create the gun

We did not create

The lethal toxins

Of intoxication

A man on TV said

That for a dollar

He'll save me

A place in heaven

-On his Florida estate

A man debating the state of the nation

For a dollar he'll give me

The right to choke on vote.
