smart people can disagree (2008)

smart people can disagree
idiots though should remain quiet
instead idiots usually start riots
based on an ideology of hate

i don't need more facts than what's on a wiki page
to come to a sensible conclusion
and if you insist on making elaborate allusions
i would rather just drink in silence

and yes it matters who started the violence
but jesus had something going with that whole cheek-turning thing
i know eighty rockets leave more than an embarrassing sting
but sometimes compromise requires you to proudly bend over

and i know, a girlfriend will object, sipping on a chocolaty liqueur
that bending over is no way to achieve compromise
well, darling, down such pessimistic sewer pipes is where a break-up lies
and before you know it, the toilet roars, and both you and i are drowning in shit
