Here's for the Cynics

Here's for the Cynics
Who'll always let you know
When things reach the remix
That they told you so.

Nothings going to change
Why wear yourself out?
Stop acting so strange
You don't have to shout!

There's nothing you can do
That someone hasn't done
Its just more of the same
Why not have some fun?

Hardened hearts, washed out eyes
Years since they expressed surprise.

Nothing new under the sun
Why not have some fun?

What of those who came before?
Have you forgotten what they struggled for?
Doesn't it matter any more?

What are you saying? An example.

It still isn't very clear?
Come and stand right here.

Our examples who fought in the South
So you could flap your big ol' mouth
With reasonable impunity
Clear?
