I Don't Know Why

Ah I don't know why I don't know why Humankind is so cruel I don't know why I don't know why We work at playing the fool Politics is the sword that divides us We take a stab but make things worse And I swear yes I swear yeah I swear Their oaths become a curse In the maze of politics Go ahead choose left or right You end up running in circles No one wins the fight We find ourselves making a fist When we're under their thumb I don't know why I don't know why Humankind is so cruel I don't know why I don't know why We work at playing the fool Politics is the sword that divides us We take a stab but make things worse And I swear yes I swear yeah I swear Their oaths become a curse They say we need protection But it feels like an STD Another romantic notion That turns into a disease They're calculating and we pay the price The cost is far too high I don't know why I don't know why Humankind is so cruel I don't know why I don't know why We work at playing the fool Politics is the sword that divides us We take a stab but make things worse And I swear yes I swear yeah I swear Their oaths become a curse If they had any vision That might see us through But history repeats itself The future the future is deja vu I don't know why I don't know why Humankind is so cruel I don't know why I don't know why We work at playing the fool Politics is the sword that divides us We take a stab but make things worse And I swear yes I swear yeah I swear Their oaths become a curse
