John Butler Trio - Don't Understand Lyrics
Did you ever stop to think about whatcha gonna doWith your responsibility?Or did you,Just take this job cause it wouldBe good for the moneyAnd did youEver stop to thinkAbout your duty to mankindOr did you,Think ya take this job do favoursFor you friends and waste all our time?So tell me manDo you realize what you're doing to this good country?Cause you're selling it all away for your economicStabilityAnd you,Justify everything you doWith the people that you say you're gonna employBut the unemployment line is getting bigger every yearAnd you treat us all like toys.We're just expendable to youAlong now with this landAnd there ain't no room left for empathyAnd this is something I don't understandDon't make no sense to meJustifying everything we do on our economyAnd there ain't no roomNo more room left for human decencyJustifying everything we do on our economyAnd the only time you listen to the peopleIs when you think you won't get their voteOtherwise you really could not give a shitDon't mind rockin all our boatsAnd the greatest living friend is a man who goes byThe name of apathyAnd we let you get away with everything you like soYou make all your moneyBut I tell you something right now old manAnd this is a fair old warning to youThat the people are waking upAnd gonna make you accountable tooJust like the nazi trials in NuremburgHell not so long agoGonna make you pay for what you have doneGonna make you responsibleCause I don't understanddon't understanddon't understandwhat head space you are inso it must be lies you're speakin
