You Say You’re Not One to Judge

You say you’re not one to judge
But listen what you say
If I don’t hate the ones you hate
You say I’m not okay
Then you go on and on about people who lied
Well, pick up a mirror, Baby
And look inside
Pick up a mirror, Baby
And look inside

 Babe, I see you’re wired
To the wireless age
You know all the words
But you can’t touch the page
Connected to everything with a worldwide view
But you can’t even see the person sitting next to you
You can’t even see the person sitting next to you

Refrain:
Modern life is nasty, it’s mean
It’s a runaway machine
People saying and doing things
Like I never, never, never seen
Before
Well, we need a little help
Need a little, little help
A little help

The cause you were fighting for
Seems lost to you now
Obscured in words and time
It’s just a broken vow
And all those things you were trying to change
They changed without you, but your anger still remains

Refrain:
I see idiots and clowns
When politicians come to town
They light up the house with fear
They say all the things they think I wanna hear
Then go
They take the money and run
They go
They take the money and run
 

We look like victims
Of our own success
Pockets full of cash
But the world is a mess
So much healthy food, but still we get fat
Got GPS but we still don’t know where we’re at
Got GPS but we still don’t know where we’re at

Refrain:
You believe in the soft machine
Your special ends justify all means
Black and white turns gray
And every foul-mouthed thing you say
Sounds cool
But you’re just another fool
So, so, so cool
But you’re just another fool
