Making It Up

~ Dgar

Everybody is making it up

As they go along

Everybody is making it up

Just like I made up this song

They made up the words

And they made up the rules

And they made up a language

For speaking to fools

They’ll draw lines on a map

And tell you where to go

They’ll talk about your future

But they don’t know.

Everybody is making it up

As they go along

Everybody is making it up

and they’re getting it wrong

They wrote the stories

And they, they wrote the news

And they wrote history

To support their point of view

Kings and queens

Presidents too

Leaders of countries

They don’t have a clue.

Tick tock

We’re running out of time

Tick tock tick tock

We’re running out of time

Tick tock

Everybody is making it up

As they go along

Can everybody just make up

And get along

They made up the systems

That created the tools

Thet made up the boxes

To keep us in tune

Kings and queens

Presidents too

Leaders of countries

They don’t have a clue.

A blood red sea

with an orange glow

Are you enjoying the show?

We don’t have long to go.

Tick tock
