Sometimes You Get the Notion

lyrics

sometimes you get the notion

open your window: what do you see?
you see a whole world struggling to breathe
sometimes you get the notion to turn this thing around
but life is an ocean and you live underground
so you turn off the lights when you leave a room
'cause the dead don't need illumination in their tombs
sometimes you get the notion to tear this thing apart
but you know in your heart that you're not that smart
so you write all the papers for your college class
discuss oppression while you're smoking your grass
sometimes you get the notion to kill, kill, kill
is it the violence or the change that'll give you your thrill?
so you sign the petition and you go to the march
then you turn and run farther when the cops start to charge
sometimes you get the notion to run away and quit
but what're you gonna do without the internet?
so you just buy all your meat from a local farm
that somehow kills without causing any harm
sometimes you get the notion that you've done your share
there's more work to be done but you just don't care
so you take your finger and raise it to the sky
you go down to the store and you buy, buy, buy
