The Overtly-Political-But-Oh-So-Intensely-Personal-Song

There was nothing remotely romantic about it
No hand-me-down sob-stories, nurtured or genetic
So what was so goddamn important
That I felt I had to shelve each and every one of my convictions?

Secured
And mutually reassured
Of our consistency
But your defense rejects what you believe

Because what the fuck is so "sociable" about animal-confinement?
And torture, union busting, sexism?
And isn't strange how you don't call anymore?
