Story behind the song

Written for those who see through the scam.  If you ain't pissed you ain't payin attention.  Inspired by a bumper sticker in Clearwater FL.
With so many conspiracy theories, it will never cease to amaze us how blatant atrocities go unnoticed and uncorrected.  There always seems to be enough money for congressional raises and new weapons and not much for the children and the elderly.

Lyrics

How ya'll doin' here - Let me make this clear
I got somethin I need to mention
Find the words that best - get this off my chest
Let loose some of this tension

If you ain't pissed - you ain't payin attention. 
If you think this is cool you better look again
'cause the man will have your head for your dissension 
brother if you ain't pissed - you ain't payin
if you ain't pissed - you ain't payin
if you ain't pissed - you ain't payin attention.

Watch the government
see how the moneys spent
and I question their intention
'Cause there ain't shit on mars
that's gonna feed the starved 
or shore up all your pensions 

If you ain't pissed - you ain't payin attention. 
If you think this is cool you better look again
'cause the man will have your head for your dissension 
brother if you ain't pissed - you ain't payin
if you ain't pissed - you ain't payin
if you ain't pissed - you ain't payin attention.

But the sweet and lazy life
Helps them not see the sorrow
no hope for tomorrow
Look again you still got time
are you payin attention?
