I Can't Even Lyrics

It's not like I'm unique

Or things have got that bad

This is just a fit of pique

My jeremiad

But when offenders act offended

Like their dignity's been bludgeoned

They blame the world or clutch at pearls

Kvetch in highest dudgeon

Politicians, pundits, sycophants and shills

Mansplaining miscreants who label women shrill

Bureaucrats, dingbats, ass hats and clowns

Entitled pricks' politics: always punching down

Attack dogs, demagogues, fools who threaten synagogues

Who really needs them?

But as for me

From what I see…

I can't even

I can't even

I can't even

They come at me, throwing shade

Casting their aspersions

The magical-thinking denial brigade

Of privileged perversions

Objective truth, it takes a bath

Whitewashed with assumption

Microaggressive sociopaths

Peddling dysfunction

Road-rage psychopaths, angry customers

Minor celebrities and patronizing hustlers

Cancel cultists, dudes with mullets

Bullies in the bully pulpit

Bad faith, a railing wraith

A basket case, a voter base

Who really needs them?

And as for the patriarchy…

I can't even

I can't even

I can't even
