ABC Blues

I sit and watch the disney news
 I listen and I try
 To kick the tires and dig for clues
 Parse truth from the lies
 Laughin' while I sing the blues
 Contempt that I can't hide
 Just cuz they say it don't make it true
 Or prove they're on your side
 Think I'm stupid, think I'm dumb
 The wool's over my eyes
 Firmly placed under your thumb
 Blinded, hypnotized
 The demagogues and oligarchs
 Assure you that they're right
 Then turn around, sell you the dark
 And tell you it's the light
 Think I'm stupid, think I'm dumb
 A shill for the right price
 Banking that I have grown numb
 Depressed, anesthetized
 I sit and watch the disney news
 I hear the usual line
 The fearmongering platitude
 Designed to cloud my mind
