Bonus! Song o' the Day


The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, "Here We Are" from While We're at It (Rude Boy Mike Papa Whiskey)

Skammentary:
"Wrath like you've never imagined,
Beyond our wildest dreams,
No explanation, God's green creation
Is coming apart at the seams.
Seems we might have done it this time,
This time might be the one,
We can't reverse, or even worse,
This time, this time what have we done?

"Here we are,
How did we get here?
Did we ask for this to happen
And not know where it would go?
It's gone too far,
And can't continue,
Someone has to do something before anyone
Does anything we will regret forever!

"A path we should never set foot on,
A road that nobody takes,
Incompetent leaders, liars and cheaters,
Catastrophic and costly mistakes,
We're hoping to come to our senses,
And sensing that won't be the case,
Hope's running low, there's no place to go,
How did we get to this place?

"Here we are,
How did we get here?
Did we ask for this to happen
And not know where it would go?
It's gone too far,
And can't continue,
Someone has to do something before anyone
Does anything we will regret forever!
Forever!
Forever!

"The lugs are loose on every wheel,
On every level, it's unreal!
Lost at the type head, lost to appeal
Fed up with the setup, where's the reveal?
A break? A scam? A ladder of rules?
A practical joke? No one's amused!
Whose premise? Whose plan? Whose bad idea?
That's not important. Get us out of here!

"Here we are,
How did we get here?
Did we ask for this to happen
And not know where it would go?
It's gone too far,
And can't continue,
Someone has to do something before anyone
Does anything we will regret!
Here we are,
How did we get here?
Did we ask for this to happen
And not know where it would go?
It's gone too far,
And can't continue,
Someone has to do something before anyone
Does anything we will regret forever!"
