The Kelly Song Collective
Everyone Is A Hypocrite
Everyone is a hypocrite
That’s what he said
Then like a flash in a jerry can
I had to go thank the man
Last trip to the altar
First trip to the grave
Bright and shining a eulogy
When they look back at me
Everyone is a hypocrite
Everybody is full of it
You can crown em
You can drown em
Leave em or bereave em
But nothing they say’s worth spit
A stitch in time saves a dozen
Threading needles takes time
Tattooed and cold head hands
The republic for which it stands
The conscience and the unconscious
Is a factory job
Push and crank in a high school hall
A candle glowing success for all
