1
Well ain't it a shame 'bout our short little memory
2
We never seem to learn the lessons of history
3
We keep making the same mistakes - over and over and over and over again
4
And then we wonder why we're in the shape we're in
5
Good ol' boys down at the bar
6
Peanuts and politics
7
They think they know it all
8
They don't know much of nothin'
9
Even if one of 'em was to read a newspaper, cover to cover
10
That ain't what's going on
11
Journalism dead and gone
12
Frail grasp on the big picture
13
Light fading and the fog is getting thicker
14
Frail grasp on the big picture
15
Dark ages
16
And you, my love-drunk friend
17
All that red wine and candlelight
18
Soulful conversations that go on until the dawn
19
How many times can you tell your story
20
How many hangovers can you endure - just to get some snogging done
21
You're living in a hormone dream
22
You don't have the slightest notion what long-term love is all about
23
All your romantic liaisons don't deal with eternal questions like:
24
"Who left the cap off the freakin' toothpaste?" "Whose turn to take the garbage out?"
25
Frail grasp on the big picture
26
You keep on rubbing that, you're gonna get a blister
27
Frail grasp on the big picture
28
I've seen it all before
29
And we pray to our lord, who we know is American
30
He reigns from on high
31
He speaks to us through middlemen
32
And he shepherds his flock
33
We sing out and praise his name
34
He supports us in war
35
He presides over football games
36
And the right will prevail
37
All our troubles will be resolved
38
We hold faith above all
39
Unless there's money or sex involved
40
Frail grasp on the big picture
41
Nobody's calling them for roughing up the kicker
42
It's a frail grasp on the big picture
43
Heaven help us
44
Frail grasp on the big picture
45
All waiting for that miracle elixir
46
Frail grasp on the big picture
47
I don't wonder anymore
48
Frail grasp on the big picture
49
You brought her here, so go ahead and kiss her
50
It's a frail grasp on the big picture
