Now some people think the world is what it ain't
To some I'm a sinner, to others a saint
Some folks say the world ain't what is is
All I know is I just got to take a wiz
Where am I goin' and where have I been
My head's in the clouds and my tail's in a spin
Jumpin' out of planes for the thrill of it all
Then I bounce back and take a Piss On The Wall
Politics - Shmolitics
They oughta save their breath
Mean streak - blue streak
They sentence me to death
Harangue me from a tree
Twist and shout until I crawl
Do the flip - do the flop
Piss On The Wall
Well the Yanks hate the Reds
And the Greeks hate the Turks
I really hate to say it
But they're all a bunch of jerks
Seems like everybody's shakin'
'Cause the big one's 'bout to fall
I'm just tryin' to hold it steady while I
Piss On The Wall
To some I'm a sinner, to others a saint
Some folks say the world ain't what is is
All I know is I just got to take a wiz
Where am I goin' and where have I been
My head's in the clouds and my tail's in a spin
Jumpin' out of planes for the thrill of it all
Then I bounce back and take a Piss On The Wall
Politics - Shmolitics
They oughta save their breath
Mean streak - blue streak
They sentence me to death
Harangue me from a tree
Twist and shout until I crawl
Do the flip - do the flop
Piss On The Wall
Well the Yanks hate the Reds
And the Greeks hate the Turks
I really hate to say it
But they're all a bunch of jerks
Seems like everybody's shakin'
'Cause the big one's 'bout to fall
I'm just tryin' to hold it steady while I
