In The Nation of Confusion

Oh what have we come to
the press is all in a daze
got the footballer
with a girlfriend that never existed

But really should we be so stunned
deceit can easily be found
and if not the media can create it
make sure we get our daily dose of "dirty laundry"

We don't have to get into who killed Kennedy
talk about our more recent lifetimes
and surely you will see that the belief is
the error isn't telling the lie but
rather getting caught

Now we all remember slick Willy he didn't inhale
or have sex with that woman
but that was personal so we shouldn't care
passed on to GW now I think blaming him
for 9/11 goes too far but what about
those weapons of mass destruction?

Baseball will have no Hall Fame members this year
steroids did in the top three
yet not one has admitted to taking drugs
so just what should we believe?

And poor old Lance whom I have heard
in person could be a real jerk
just faked us all out
is our world now
where the lie is the norm?

The president, the congress aren't trusted with much
in any business bigger then two
gives the feeling you have been given
a run around

So heck if John wasn't right
All I want is the truth
just gimme some truth
