The Only Thing Worse Than Beating A Dead Horse Is Betting On One Lyrics
Just listen to the politician
Wishing his position wasn't missing
Everything his heart would like to say
And a constant in the constitution
Is that there can't be one solution
It'd be so far from the truth
And we would hate it anyway
Opinions are immunity to being told you're wrong
Paper, rock, and scissors
They all have their pros and cons
And all of us we will endure
Just like we always have
But you just can't be too sure
How long this will last
'cause we control the chaos
In the back of our minds
Our problems seem so small
But they grow on us like gravity
But gravity still makes us fall
Wishing his position wasn't missing
Everything his heart would like to say
And a constant in the constitution
Is that there can't be one solution
It'd be so far from the truth
And we would hate it anyway
Paper, rock, and scissors
They all have their pros and cons
Just like we always have
But you just can't be too sure
How long this will last
In the back of our minds
Our problems seem so small
But they grow on us like gravity
But gravity still makes us fall

LOL, so true man, so true
LOL, so true man, so true
"Opinions are immunity to being told you're wrong" is one of the most profound truths I have ever heard.
How do they sing the second line that fast? O_O
The Title Is Better Than The Song.
For a second there, I thought Relient K was going Minor Threat on us.... lol, silly me
Short, but O so great...
i dig this song...it's a pleasant departure from the Relient K we're used to...it lets us know that they can rock out hard when they want to.
the first part is missing some words...
"Just listen to the politican wishing his position ((wan't missing everything his heart would)) like to say "
I think this is the first (or one of the only) songs of semi-politicalness they've done...
"Paper, rock, and scissors they all have their pros and cons "
Like the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial branches of the US government. Balance of power, checks and balances.
"And all of us we will endure Just like we always have But you just can't be too sure How long this will last "
I think... "us" means the people living in America. "this" means the government, or our way of doing it?
"Cause we control the chaos In the back of our minds Our problems seem so small But the grow on us like gravity But gravity still makes us fall"
Problems in the government that seem to small to them but are in reality important, that the government has been distracted from or has and keeps putting off until later, and eventually they'll catch up and something bad will happen.
I love this song. I wish they made it a LITTLE longer. I love the part when it goes "paper, rock, and scissors all have thier pros and cons" great vocals.
"opinions are immunity to being told your wrong"
is my fave line cause, it's bout how we can't really say anyhting's right cause thats discriminative or something... we're all allowed to have our own opinion which is kinda stupid cause it means you can't tell someone if they're wrong... or something like that... if i made any sense...
"constant in the constitution is that there can't be one sloution" says the same thing...
