The clown car calls for boots on the ground
I pay no attention
Show of strength via podium pound
I pay no mind
Ice caps melting, but all the same
I pay no attention
'Cause paid-for studies say we're not to blame
I pay no mind
I'm just sitting here with a tear in my beer
Wondering why don't you love me
I check without fail, it says "you got no mail"
I'm just wondering why don't you love me?
Another shooting right downtown
And I pay no attention
The NRA just loads another round
And I pay no mind
Then a militia erupts, and what the heck
I pay no attention
They're taking over the parks and rec
I pay no mind
I'm oblivious to everything but us
Wondering, oh why don't you love me?
The baseball score doesn't matter anymore
I'm just wondering why don't you love me
Oh ho, I never used to be this self-involved
I was an activist, philanthropist before your love dissolved
The banks are called too big to fail
I pay no attention
'Cause you can't throw a corporation in jail
I pay no mind
The working poor, they can't keep up
I pay no attention
And if they want food stamps we'll make 'em piss in a cup
I pay no mind
You used to be always messaging me
Now I'm wondering why don't you love me
Stuck inside my sad little mind
I'm just wondering why don't you love me
Why don't you love me?
Why don't you love me?
