The government totally sucks
You motherfucker
The government totally sucks
Ben franklyn was a rebel indeed
He liked to get naked while he smoked on the weed
He was a genious but if he was here today
The government would fuck him up his righteous aayyy
Now let me tell you something about the government (uh huh)
They're fucking up the environment (say what?)
They're taking all the fucking beautiful animals (yeah?)
And making them fucking extinct (oh no!)
The government totally sucks
You motherfucker
The government totally sucks
The government totally sucks
'cause the land of love and freedom,
Is just a baby's breath away
And if we hold hands together
We can bring back the USA
The USAAAAAA YEAAHHH
Bring back the USAAAA YEAAHH
The fucking USAAAA YEAHHHH
Bring back the US
Government totally sucks!

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
This song, I believe, is a slap to all of those hollow artists out there who have found it's easy to be cool and edgy and sell lots of albums when you're constantly talking about how the government is so evil, despite the fact that they haven't truly put much thought into how to improve what's broken...aside from "impeach (insert patsy here)."
All these artists are doing nothing but cultivating a generation of youth who will rebel against anything so long as it's cool and never ever devote any of their brain-cells to independent thought.
Awesome, compared to bullshit...indeed.
To add to this, their treatment of really common aspects to political songs, like claims that the founding fathers would agree with the authors' sentiments and have a lot in common with them, are hilariously perfect. Since the author of this song happens to be Tenacious D, of course Benjamin Franklin was into getting naked and smokin weed. I almost wish they had used an even more nonspecific and uninspired issue to inaccurately represent than the environment, although it's still funny. <br /> <br /> I also like how they parody the pseduo-punk sound and then switch tracks thematically to parody excruciatingly saccharine patriotic ballads. Both types of songs rely on drumming up emotions around some vague political ideals or oversimplifying issues because for a lot of people seem to think just mentioning them is poignant songwriting, even if the writer fails to make a worthwhile point or if the lyrics are artistically vapid. Either case is a tried and true songwriting formula and the result is naive, insincere and meaningless drivel.
