The Social Lubricant

I see you, but do you see me?
Am I coming through on your color TV?
Every channel that you turn to
Has me staring back at you

I'm in your wrists and i'm in your blood
I am in the bathroom in your tub
My smile cuts clean through my face
And all my parts are out of place

My shadow has a mind of it's own
The life it leads is the life that you own
Don't kid yourself, you know you're me
You cut my side, and then you bleed

Don't play politics, or call "Common Man!"
He cares not for you, or your selfish plans
You weren't "common" the second you got paid
Now everything you write is just a replay

So, i'm sittin' high and i'm sittin' well
I've made my bed here in this hell
The sun, it never shines too bright
but, I hear everyone at night

Please help me go deaf.
