The Known Unknowns
Heartland

I don’t know you but you think that you know me
I’m from one of the Devil’s incubators, yeah a Northeastern city
That must mean that I hate Jesus, chances are I’m high right now
And I want to steal your guns and hand out lame-ass little flowers

I don’t know you but you think that you know me
I’ll make you drive a moped, and I’ll trash your SUV
I want an all-gay military, you know they’ll protect your ass
Then I’ll stop hating the troops, get back to burning me some flags

Oh I can’t wait to take your money and buy more useless bureaucrats
And next year I’ll campaign for Bin Laden when he runs as a Democrat
Let’s marry my pal Steve and his box turtle right here in city hall
There are so many ways that I’ll screw you, yeah I can’t wait to do them all

Chorus

Well some things you say are kinda true and some is total shit
But don’t you try to tell me what I think, ’cause you’re a fucking hypocrite
I’m sorry I’m not from your Sanctimoniassville, USA
But I hear the folks there think you’re a big tool anyway,
Yeah yeah yeah


I don’t know you, but you’re coming up to speed
I’ve got a shrine to Marx and Lenin, and just wear my Grateful Dead tees
I’ve got Birkenstocks like Jesus, ain’t washed my hair in a year
And yeah I read the New York Times, and snack on babies with my beer

Oh I can’t wait to take your money and buy more useless bureaucrats
And next year I’ll campaign for Bin Laden when he runs as a Democrat
Let’s marry my pal Steve and his box turtle right here in city hall
There are so many ways that I’ll screw you, yeah I can’t wait to do them all

I don’t know you but you think that you know me
I’m from one of the Devil’s incubators, yeah a Northeastern city
That must mean that I hate Jesus, chances are I’m high right now
And I want to steal your guns and hand out lame-ass little flowers

Oh I can’t wait to take your money and buy a big ol’ welfare state
And I’ll let you see a doctor, but they’ll all be second rate
I’m gonna blame the corporations for my ice cream headache last fall
There are so many ways that I’ll screw you, yeah I can’t wait to do them all
