I Have Been Wronged

in a flickering lobby i fume
next to the vending machine.
kick it and shake it
it won't let go of the litigations i paid for
with my christmas bill.
we walked downtown in the rain
and she stumbled around us
thought i might keep them at bay
but they sold their scum really early
i have been wronged.
you've got to hear yourself
got to let your legs just run, run, run, run, run, run, run
you feel their kingdom come
you see thy will be done, done, done, done, done
done, done, done, done, done, done, done, done.
slithering slow through the grass
infrared goggles on my head
wringing the blood from your hair
you left your teeth on the bureau
oh what has, what has
what has gone wrong?
nothing has changed
president's day has come and gone, gone, gone, gone, gone.
pick up a rifle and pick off the sores
one by one, one, one, one, one, one
the neighbors are acting suspicious
their curtains are down, down, down, down, down, down.
smuggle the sweetest in secrets all under now
tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me,
tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
