lyrics

You got the megaphone
You got the behind
You got the je ne sais quoi
I'm losing my mind

I could try to talk you out of it
But it's to no avail
So for the sake of my faith
I'm hoping you fail

This ain't about me
This ain't about you
It's the United States of Have Our Cake and Eat It Too

I couldn't get away with it
Even with this hair
But you could take off with it
It could make you a millionaire

If I put myself out there like that
They'd put me under the jail
So for the sake of my faith
I'm hoping you fail

This ain't about me
This ain't about you
It's the United States of Have Our Cake and Eat It Too

Everybody wanna be,
No one wanna be one.
Everybody wants a pass.

I'm hoping you fail
For the sake of my vanity
For the sake of my sanity
For the sake of humanity
For the sake of the wine
For the sake of the host
For the sake of the Father,
the Son and the Holy Ghost
For the sake of my faith
For the sake of the cake

This ain't about me
This ain't about you
It's the United States of Have Our Cake and Eat It Too
