about

This is a response to how some Americans reacted to (and are still reacting to) the COVID-19 pandemic. Sometimes we gotta take a hard look at ourselves, and sometimes you gotta call it like you see it. This isn't totally a finger pointing song, 'cause sometimes I'm a selfish bitch, too.

lyrics

All of my life I've been, so deprived
Always seem to win but I'm, not alive
If it doesn't benefit, me alone
Don't have the time and, nobody's home

Twice over we sat back and watched the burning of the fuse
With all the time to choose
Complacently bored, self righteous, convenient sacrifice
With everything to lose

You know I'm down for the cause, I, posted it twice
But I don't need to worry, no, I'm alright
I can't be bothered with, a change in my ways
If I'm not affected I, don't give a damn

Twice over we sat back and watched the burning of the fuse
With all the time to choose
Complacently bored, self righteous, convenient sacrifice
With everything to lose

Over and over we watched the burning of the fuse
With all the time to choose
Complacently bored, self righteous, convenient sacrifice
With everything to lose
