They're gonna win most popular forever
Vote or award does it even matter?
The politician or actress
Such a mess

Who is who?
Cause I can't tell the difference
So what's the poor boy to do?
Except be sick of you

In total obfuscation, this damn nation
Starstruck, stripped of our stripes
In total obfuscation, this damn nation
Dumbstruck guttersnipes

The camera loves their every grin
Such a sin
Beat the drums till
The whole country wakes up

That'd be a wonderous, thunderous day
Dream away
We're enraptured
Captured by the linelight

So what's the poor boy to do?
Except be sick of you
In total obfuscation, this damn nation
Starstruck, stripped of our stripes
In total obfuscation, this damn nation
Dumbstruck guttersnipes

They get away with murdering
In vain I sing
With stupid smiles
We'll grant THEM all a pardon

So what's the poor boy to do?
Except be sick of you
In total obfuscation, this damn nation
Starstruck, stripped of our stripes
In total obfuscation, this damn nation
Dumbstruck guttersnipes
