Forget the Facts

Forget the fact that you don't know me
'Cause there's nothing that you want to know
Forget the fact that you won't show me
'Cause there's nothing that you want to show
Forget the fact that I don't look like you
You keep singing, "We don't change"
Forget the fact this is nothing new

Forget the violence, forget the pain
Our happy meals will taste the same
Forget the scandal, forget the sleaze
We'll drag the real thing to it's knees

Forget the fact that I don't know you
When there's nothing that I want to know
Forget the fact that I won't go too
'Cause there's nothing if I want to go
Forget the fact that this is nothing new

Forget the violence, forget the pain
Our happy meals will taste the same
Forget the scandal, forget the sleaze
We'll drag the real thing to it's knees

And then we'll smile
As we devise a brand new peace prize
Cash-back euthanasia schemes
GM children, low fat dreams
Jerry Springer, crack cocaine
Another black box, another plane
Instant access to friendly fire
Plastic bullets, green barbed wire

Forget the violence, forget the pain
Our happy meals will taste the same
Forget the scandal, forget the sleaze
We'll drag the real thing to it's knees
