Nobody Cares


VERSE 1
The world is on fire, dictators are liars
Nobody left on our planet to admire
We go through the motions every year
Drown our sorrows in drugs and beer
The other side wants to mock our tears
And divide us with their angry fears
Nobody cares that this is happening
The apathetic have become champions

CHORUS 1
And nobody cares
Nobody cares
Another rainstorm of bullets
Godly rhetoric is bullshit

VERSE 2
We could burn an orphanage tonight
Leave a beacon like a searchlight
Everyone would look the other way
Carry on like it’s just another day
We could steamroll our own young
When they grow a silver tongue
And nobody would give a damn
Despite performances of a ham

CHORUS 2
And nobody cares
Nobody cares
Another war with ourselves
Creating our own version of hell

BRIDGE
Sex is used as a weapon
The rapists go to heaven
The victims are crucified
Accused of spewing lies
And nobody cares
Nobody cares

VERSE 3
If one person could do enough
Then life wouldn’t be so tough
If one person’s voice truly mattered
We could put an end to the splatters
I wanted to believe that this was true
But there’s nothing I can do
Except play the role of the helpless
Call me lazy or call me selfish

CHORUS 3
And nobody cares
Nobody cares
Another day in paradise
Why can’t we all play nice?
And nobody cares
Nobody cares
Another day in the shitter
Leaves us cold and bitter
Another day in this winter
Is worth becoming a quitter
And nobody cares
Nobody cares

It's Not Porn


CHORUS
It’s!
Not!
Porn!

VERSE 1
Lesbian ladies on a double-decker bus
Homophobic men spying on their love
“Give us a show and make the fuck out
While we snort with our big piggy snouts”
The answer was no because they said so
Barbaric men decked them in the nose
Punching, screaming, secretly creaming
Where are the police when you need them?

CHORUS
It’s!
Not!
Porn!

VERSE 2
Unconscious girl behind a dumpster
Rapist swimmer summons the thunder
He called it twenty minutes of action
As he grinned with sick satisfaction
Slap on the wrist for Mr. White Privilege
A new idiot for the concrete village
He blamed it all on the damn alcohol
But at least his career never had to fall

CHORUS
It’s!
Not!
Porn!

BRIDGE
The faces of hate in the Sunday paper
The violence never seems to taper
No abortions for the pregnant victims
The right-wing never wants to listen

VERSE 3
If they dress like “sluts” and you grab their butts
Don’t be surprised when they kick you in the nuts
A revealing cosplay doesn’t give you the right
To fill her head full of trauma every fucking night
The real world isn’t like the porn on your computer
This urban war zone isn’t a First Person Shooter
You weren’t the first and you’re not the last
To need to have your head pulled out of your ass

CHORUS X4
It’s!
Not!
Porn!
