Realtime - It's You And Me lyrics

rate me

Tom broke all* records to bring us the news<br />

Of every politician and everyone he screws<br />

It ain't about me and it ain't about you<br />

But without world disasters what would Dan rather* do<br />

And who pays those speakers their royal fee<br />

It's you and me, baby, it's you and me<br />

Cheer the second baseman earning 19 grand a day<br />

Get that mother of three small kids and take the welfare away<br />

She's only lazy, making babies by the TV -- who needs her<br />

She can't entertain us or hit .293<br />

But who pays the player that royal fee<br />

It's you and me, baby, it's you and me<br />

What we see ain't what we get<br />

The poor don't smile and the rich don't sweat<br />

The harder I work the deeper my debt<br />

What we see ain't what we get<br />
