Roman Goddess Razor

Ignorant voter, empty mind, echoing head, emotions raging red
Read the newspaper last year and fear’s been reigning ever since
Dunce hat fits well, tailored to fit to the times, we’re guilty of crimes
humanity replaced by vanity, mirrored in the media, repeated on the blogs
hog the limelight, burning bright lights and overdone hype
lemon-lime soda that’s caffeine free, yes men on the news all agree
we’re the generation who’s too lazy to breathe

I read the news today
Oh girl
This whirlwind whips up my emotions
Dry legs need lotion, the goddess of my razor
Fueling the latest craze or just another mass media market
Spark it and park it, gas prices got out of hand
So stay at home, and start another rock band

Boyfriends, Girlfriends, one way streets and dead ends
Deadbeat dads and the latest fads, broadcast on broadband
Yes we can! Raise your hand, be counted and count to ten
Control your emotions when we’re ignored yet again
Pen a letter to congress, digress into a rant, dress pants stained
Feigned attacks and listing what you lack, he likes your rack
But doesn’t see your mind, Find meaning in leaving
His colander mind, you slipped through, leaving your essence behind
Unwind like a cassette, You let yourself be tossed out
Another bout with reality versus your duality

I read the news today
Oh girl
This whirlwind whips up my emotions
Dry legs need lotion, the goddess of my razor
Fueling the latest craze or just another mass media market
Spark it and park it, gas prices got out of hand
So stay at home, and start another rock band

Sing songs to empty walls, decorate them like Escher
Another MC that wouldn’t agree with the status quo
That’s the way it goes, Or so would say Vonnegut
Who’d go on again, Rambling thoughts interrupted when
The chapter’d end and next thought began without an intro
Who needs it though? Glow tape and black lights
Stage fright under spot lights and Fresnel
Oh well, get over it hobo! Tech’s got a gobo to put in place
Make up your face and waste time while tech lines things up
Staged, restaged and strange estranged actors in this play
Reality got confused today, What does the media have to say?

I read the news today
Oh girl
This whirlwind whips up my emotions
Dry legs need lotion, the goddess of my razor
Fueling the latest craze or just another mass media market
Spark it and park it, gas prices got out of hand
So stay at home, and start another rock band

Pseudo-science is an art and I’ll take it apart
Interrupted by farts, ran for the doorknob
Corn on the cob, summer stereotypes and wet wipes to clean up
Shut up when you don’t have a point, Appoint a leader
Walmart greeters and trick or treaters are both friendly
And unwanted. Haunted house with phantom friends
Dead ends, discovered on google maps, keystroke types
Enough hype, used the internet to discover another lover
Covered your tracks, packed and tracked his path
E-stalker on facebook, figured she’d take another look
Never read a book, but knew spark notes and themes
Strawberries and cream flavored yogurt to comfort her hurt

I read the news today
Oh girl
This whirlwind whips up my emotions
Dry legs need lotion, the goddess of my razor
Fueling the latest craze or just another mass media market
Spark it and park it, gas prices got out of hand
So stay at home, and start another rock band

Sing your blues and technicolor fantasies
Change realities or just let them be
Rant about your pants and his sorry ass
Fail your class, sign said do not pass
On the right, go left or take a u turn
Burn baby burn, or at least earn a paycheck
Check your coat at the door, that dress? You whore
Wanted more! He said to the judge
Sweet like chocolate, thick like fudge
Black and white and read like the news
Now on youTube with 2 million views

I was the news today
Oh girl
This whirlwind whips up my emotions
Going through the motions, Roman Goddess like my razor
The latest craze or another mass media market
Sparked it! Parked it! Cuz gas prices got out of hand
So I stayed at home to start another rock band

I’m a Roman Goddess just like my razor
it’s the latest craze or something more
So open the door, and open the windows
The internet’s beckoning and I’m reckoning it’s my turn
Time to earn a paycheck or burn burn burn the midnight oil
Curses, foiled again. Try now or else when?
Burn the midnight oil and be a Roman goddess like my razor
I’m the latest craze or maybe just the latest crazy
Lazy-boy, oh girl! I read the news today. Oh girl, I read the news.
