I love the lie and lie the love
A-hangin' on with push and shove
Possession is the motivation
Messin' up the God-damn nation
Looks like we always end up in a rut
Everybody now, tryin' to make it real compared to what?
Slaughterhouses killin' hogs
Twisted children killin' frogs
Poor dumb rednecks rollin' logs
Tired old ladies kissin' dogs
I hate the human but love that stinking mutt
Try to make it real compared to what?
Church on Sunday, sleep and nod
Tryin' to duck the wrath of God
Preacher's fillin' us with fright
They all tryin' to teach us what they think is right
Well, they really got to be some kind of nut
Tryin' to make it real — compared to what?
Where's that bee and where's that honey?
Where's my God and where's my money?
Unreal values, crass distortion
Unwed mothers need abortion
Kind of brings to mind ol' young King Tut
He did it now, tried to make it real — compared to what?!
