The daily news makes me insane
Bombarding me with random pain
Switch it off and the noise won't wane
Bastards simply turn up the gain

All of my friends repeat their lies
What to like and what to despise
Propaganda is billboard size
"We let you care" their message cries

People, you are so damn dum
When millions die, you go all num
But kill just one, the whole world stares
Who cares, who cares, who fucking cares

I care about the human race
We're growing at a rapid pace
But what good is a single face
Or seven people lost in space

We must not sweat the small details
Like crying over dog entrails
While millions languish in the jails
With fortress walls to mute death wails

People, you are so damn dum
When millions die, you go all num
But kill just one, the whole world stares
Who cares, who cares, who fucking cares

Which tragedy would first get filed
The VPs little kidnapped child
Or Bhopal, where the bodies piled
The kid's worth more, that gets me riled

One day the bombs will start to blow
The press will be the first to go
Those left alive will have much woe
They'll live the truth they didn't know

People, you are so damn dum
When millions die, you go all num
But kill just one, the whole world stares
Who cares, who cares, who fucking cares
