Hijack this!

Politically Correct - SR71

Probably my favorite song by them.

I don't mean to piss you off with things I might say
But when I try to shut my mouth they come out anyway
When I speak my mind, that's when we connect
But that's not politically correct

Your head's so filled with thought, you can't use your imagination
Like a sky so filled with stars, you can't find a constellation
And everyone's so sensitive to every bad vibration
We're so impressing while we're regressing

There's nothing I believe in more than my own insignificance
So why does everybody think that my words can make a difference
I just don't have time to think up every social consequence
I'll just keep on talking you keep applauding

I don't mean to piss you off with things I might say
But when I try to shut my mouth they come out anyway
If you spoke your mind you might feel more connected
But, until you get politically corrected

You lean a little to the left or the right but
You can only see what's on your side.
Look a little like a deer in the headlights
A little blind a little hypnotized.
So you conform with the best of intention
Change comes from inside.
After all that's what this country was founded on
Do nothing different just fall in line.

What happened to make us so afraid
You couldn't make a Mel Brooks movie today
I saw Blazing Saddles yesterday
 
The Place You Hide - Mesh

I could never fall for you
But the tension makes the air so blue
I would never have the time
To watch you every day and night but,
Maybe if I let myself
Come down from this dusty shelf
You're messing with my head again
Got me seeing red again, so
Take me to the place you hide
Where the truth belongs outside
Tell me all I need to hear
All you want and all you fear
Take me to the place you love
Where we fit like heavens glove
Take the pictures off the wall
And make me feel there's nothing more
Though I couldn't ask of you,
Something I could never do
Thought I couldn't ever need
Someone that would make me plead so
Wish that I could pace myself
Instead I could erase myself
A conscience in a big glass jar
I never thought I'd get this far, so
Take me to the place you hide
Where the truth belongs outside
Tell me all I need to hear
All you want and all you fear
Take me to the place you love
Where we fit like heavens glove
Take the pictures off the wall
And make me feel there's nothing more
Do you regret the times you've prayed?
It's not the things you took
But the things that you've thrown away
Still, I knew it all
Take me to the place you hide
Where the truth belongs outside
Tell me all I need to hear
All you want and all you fear
Take me to the place you love
Where we fit like heavens glove
Take the pictures off the wall
And make me feel there's nothing more
