You Tell Me, I Tell You

Composer’s Rendition:

You tell me what I should do
I tell you what you should do
I don’t hear you what you say
You don’t hear me what I say
I tell you what you should read
You tell me what I should read
And you say watch Fox TV
I say MSNBC
That’s the way it is today
Nothing seems at all OK
Politicians are all crooks
All they do is look out for themselves

Everyone’s a know-it-all
Got the answers to it all
Still not good as you and me
You and I should run the USA

It could be a perfect world with only me in charge
– all the problems of the world with only me in charge
Funny thing is you tell me that you can do the same
Now I know for sure that you are totally insane
You can’t see the obvious I know much more than you
If we do the things your way then all of us are screwed
We can’t have a middle ground yeah what’s the point of that?
“My way or the highway” we say all else is just crap

You tell me what I should do
I tell you what you should do
I don’t hear you what you say
You don’t hear me what I say

Everyone’s a know-it-all
Got the answers to it all
Still not good as you and me
You and I should run the USA

And you say watch Fox TV
I say MSNBC

I tell you
You tell me
You tell me
I tell you
I tell you
You tell me
