Strawman

We, who have so much to you who have so little
To you who don't have anything at all
We, who have so much more than any one man does, need
And you, who don't have anything at all, ah

Does anybody need another million dollar movie?
Does anybody need another million dollar star?
Does anybody need to be told over and over
Spitting in, the wind comes back at you twice as hard?

Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman, going straight to hell
Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman
Strawman
Strawman
Strawman, yes

Does anyone really need a billion dollar rocket?
Does anyone need a sixty-thousand dollar car?
Does anyone need another president?
Or the sins of Swaggart parts six, seven, eight and nine?

Ah, does anyone need yet another politician
Caught with his pants down and money sticking in his hole?
Does anyone need another racist preacher?
Spittin' in the wind can only do you harm, woo

Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman, going straight to hell
Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman
Strawman
Strawman
Strawman

Does anyone need another faulty shuttle
Blasting off to the moon, Venus or Mars?
Does anybody need another self-righteous rock singer
Whose nose he says has led him straight to God?

Does anyone need yet another blank skyscraper?
If you're like me, I'm sure a minor miracle will do
A flaming sword or maybe a gold ark, floating up the Hudson
When you spit in the wind, it comes right back at you

Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman, going straight to hell
Strawman, going to the devil
Strawman
Strawman
Strawman

Here me out, ah
Ah, strawman
Strawman
