Bipartisan

You've been wearing 3D glasses

for so long.

You see the beauty

but it's blurry poppin'

round the edges

and the edges

are the facts.

Say I, Say I

pick a side

but don't think about it now.

It's just a movie,

it'll all be over soon.

It's just a headline

like the man up on the moon.

It's nothing to do with you.

Walk round in the sun

for a minute

put your head down

close your eyes

open up

yes, now the rose color

is bleaching

everything you once loved

Take a cold shower

and think about it, baby

but don't make any rash decisions,

because they'll end your world,

don't think about the bombs

an apocalypse absurd.

Just take a walk round

your little neighborhood.

thanks for the input zigsI

thanks for the input zigs I think I was trying to use the cliche of "rose colored glasses" which, when you put 3D glasses on look kinda rosy to me, and 3D is becoming very popular here in movies for some unGodly reason... but that's another topic. thanks again, sha
