Another Distraction

Good morning friends, nice to see you again
Things might be worse than we can comprehend
It's OK if all you want to do is cry
From A to B to C to Death
Where are you in your alphabet?
Mail me your letter, hope to see it before I die

Ch-Check 1-2
The world's gone mad
We're tired of being tired and being so sad
Look over there (Where?) here comes Another Distraction
Ch-Check 1-2
Is this thing on?
Hope you can hear me, hope you're staying strong
No time to wait (No!) we all need to take action

So now it's back to school, authoritarian rule
At least your designer mask looks cool
I couldn't write a Hollywood script less real
Feel like a month in a day, a year in a week
We got no paddle but we're up the creek
Election time - let's see what they try to steal

Ch-Check 1-2
The world's gone mad
We're tired of being tired and being so sad
Look over there (Where?) here comes Another Distraction
Ch-Check 1-2
Is this thing on?
Hope you can hear me, hope you're staying strong
No time to wait (No!) we all need to take action

The more we test shows the more we lack
They don't trust science, got alternative facts
And wolf whistles for those that would do their bidding
With partisan news, meant to confuse
Just keep that bull____ off of my shoes
We're alive but it don't feel like living

Ch-Check 1-2
The world's gone mad
We're tired of being tired and being so sad
Look over there (Where?) here comes Another Distraction
Ch-Check 1-2
Is this thing on?
Hope you can hear me, hope you're staying strong
No time to wait (No!) we all need to take action
