Touch and Go

What have they been telling you About the way things are? Could you have foreseen back then That you would come this far? It was touch and go there for a while Don't you agree? Did you play with Barbie dolls When no one else was around? Pardon me if I sound ignorant But the change is so profound What was going through your head As they struck you down to the ground? What they think is patriotic Barely passes for robotic And not one of them could last Three minutes in your shoes The darkness almost swallowed you up That must have been quite a case Of the blues I know that I'm supposed to be Incensed by what they say you've done But I only feel compassion 'cause They're liars, every one You've been keeping secrets all your life But now you are done Chelsea is a butterfly, she metamorphisized You can't catch her with your net 'Cause she is free inside You can't stop the progress of the truth Try as you might You can't stop the progress of the truth Try as you might
