THE OLDER I GET THE LESS I GET IT
The right says the left are all wusses
The left says the right is heartless
Blue tie man says the climate's changing
Red tie man says no, they're all lying
CHORUS
you can get lonely in the middle ground
it’s a desert that can bury your spirit
Strip away the labels, are we so different
I reckon the older I get the less I get it
The doc says eat this diet and live to 90
Next doc says no I'd never make it to 50
I read on the net buy gold and never worry
Then my broker says you'll go broke in a hurry
REPEAT CHORUS
Solo
Buy local organic, save the small farmer
No, save your money it's not the answer
Talking head says a pipeline'll cause a spill
but the other one just says drill baby drill
REPEAT CHORUS
Outro
A wise friend told me to be like grass, I said oh please
He said keep firm roots but let your blades sway in the breeze
