We Are The People

Puppets in the dance are we or do we call the tune?
We're keeping up our ratings while we feed you wreck and ruin
Thespians of revolution, money in the bank
With our college boy lisps

Brown ale gurus, Sunday supplement priests
Lunch with urban guerrillas on expense account receipts
Opinionated interviews from an informed source
Can't tell you no names, secret of course

We are the people
I am you, you are me
We are the people
I am you, you are me
Any fool can see all the people
We are the people

We're on the side of politicians, misquote their lies
Building up those favors we collect on by and by
On the side of winners we can change with the fees
Give us your proposition, we're only here to please

We are the people
I am you, you are me
We are the people
I am you, you are me
Any fool can see all the people
We are the people

Oh, please defend me
Don't ask for my surrender
We are the kings, you're the pretenders
You walk and I'll talk
Stop ringing my doorbell with questions

Subscribe, view us, listen to us, we've got the plan
We've got all the answers and we've got your man
We can change the format if the sales go down
And we got girls for everyone, yellow, pink or brown

We are the people
I am you, you are me
We are the people
I am you, you are me
Any fool can see all the people

I am you, you are me
We are the people
I am you, you are me
Any fool can see all the people

I am you, you are me
We are the people
I am you, you are me
Any fool can see all the people

I am you, you are me
We are the people
I am you, you are me
