It's The Bullshit
Lyrics
I’m so sick and tired of all this bullshit on my tv
Entertainment ain’t as entertainin’ as entertainment could be
And I’m so sick and tired of all the bullshit on my tv
So darlin’ if you could pass the time could you entertain me

Despite all the problems in the world
And hunger in the land
Well you’d rather your people know
Who took the jury stand

In the Scott Peterson trial
Well he’s a murderer I agree
But there’s a lot more things in this world
That your country needs to see

Well it all started with OJ runnin’ in his old white bronco
Runnin’ from the law with a bloody glove he hit the road
Now here we are in the middle of a war we claim we’re fightin’ to be free
Well there’s a Patriot Act at home that’s monitorin’ you and me

But it’s water under the bridge when the next thing you know
There’s a new spicy sex tape
Or a reality show that’s crossed the line
Or Jessica Simpson’s mate

Yes I’m so sick and tired of all this bullshit on my tv
Entertainment ain’t as entertainin’ as entertainment could be
And I’m so sick and tired of all this bullshit on my tv
So darlin’ if you could pass the time won’t you entertain me

Yes here we are we’re startin’ a war
We claim the rest of the world can’t have nukes
Well the only thing on my tv screen is them retro daisy dukes
Well the rest of the world is watchin’
Well they probably dropped their jaw
As old Bush wiped his ass with the Kyoto protocol

And Mr. Murdoch is smilin’
And Mr. Rove he ain’t afraid
Cuz they both lived that American dream
While the rest of the world has paid

And the Enron execs are smilin’
They golfin’ and havin’ fun
Not worried about the lives they’ve ruined
Drinkin’ boat drinks in the sun

And I’m so sick and tired of all this bullshit on my tv
Entertainment ain’t as entertainin’ as entertainment could be
Yes I’m so sick and tired of all this bullshit on my tv
My darlin’ if you could pass the time won’t you entertain me
