complain

i could complain about minor incidents over the last week and a half, only to sound as shallow as the complainant of this king's x song
ozone disappearing in the sky
bud man asking us why ask why
if i could find my magazine this bug would die
i complain
china boy standing up to a tank
southern boy living in the house of yanks
if i can't seem to get my motorbike to crank
i complain

complain so much easier
complain so much easier
complain so much easier, easier

small kid begging for a crumb of bread
next kid bloated lying nearly dead
i wonder what to take for my aching head
i complain
lots of people crying for a little rain
whole nation learning how to live with pain
i don't know how I'm gonna clean this little stain
i complain.

complain so much easier
complain so much easier
complain so much easier, easier

black man singing mississippi blues
africa starves a little baby drools
i'm trying to figure out all the basketball rules
i complain
mr. rush limbaugh giving me the facts
treetops falling and the newsman yaks
I'm thinking about carter and how I'm gonna be taxed
hey

complain so much easier
complain so much easier
complain so much easier
complain, complain
there's probably at least 5.99 billion other people out there who had worse weeks than mine, localmalcontent being one of them.

Do you think the Republican party will figure this out in time to re invent itself?

i doubt the rnc leadership will get the hint "in time" for 201x. and when they do, they'll either return to their roots or be replaced with a third party that adheres to the roots that real america believes in.

(p.s. the concept of "reinventing onesself" is a pet peeve of mine, that's why i didn't give a yes-or-no answer.)

thank you for your warm and kind words of sympathy during our loss-
they mean so much to us~
