Mr. Mayor (Your Constituents Didn't Even Notice Your Absence) Lyrics

Hey there Mr. Mayor,

Good to see you out

It sure has been a while, my friend

No, no one noticed

That you weren't around

We kinda just assumed you were dead

It's been a few months

Since your album came out

And you haven't been easy to reach

What's that you say?

You're a celebrity now?

Hey, brother, that's news to me!

You got the tuning wrong

But you're belting at the top of your lungs

And it sucks

You can write a catchy song

But you can't get anybody to sing along

Son, I'm here to say

Your problem's always been

You want it just a little too much

I know you'd like to think

You got an artist's brain

But you're the same as the rest of the bunch

So climb from off the top

Of that glassy-eyed horse

He must be tired of carrying the act

Ya better sober up quick

Before shit gets worse

The police want your autograph

You got the tuning wrong

But you're belting at the top of your lungs

And it sucks

You can write a catchy song

But you can't get anybody to sing along

You got the tuning wrong

But you're belting at the top of your lungs

And it sucks

You can write a catchy song

But you can't get anybody to sing along
