The Rebel Black Dot Song of the Day
The Proclaimers, "Everybody's a Victim" from Persevere (T.L.A.M.)

Commentary: Compare to "Weird Al" Yankovic's "I'll Sue Ya."

"Well, it's not my fault that I'm positive,
I just stuck a needle in my arm!
And nobody told me that sixty a day
Would do my any harm.
My liver's shriveling like a leaf,
But it's not the whiskey that do's it.

And I'm really going to lose it!

"Because—
Everybody's a victim,
It seems we're going that way,
Everybody's a victim,
We're becoming like the U.S.A.…"
