Sowing The Seeds Of Utopia
No Substance (1998)

We all know
Politicians only go
Just halfway there                     d
Just halfway there                     d^e d

The innocence of youth
Needs protection not abuse
But no one seems to care
Yet no one seems to care

      Em      C         G                   D
  And you sit there and watch the world go 'round 
  From your pseudo-benevolent vantage point 
  While we who've been left to pick up after you 
          Em                C               D           ()
  Try our best to make some sense for those who... come next 

C G D  x 4

Now what have you done
To foster the truth
Besides just hide the lies?
Besides just hide the lies?

A selfish campaign
Never justifies the gain
But the means are verified
Yeah the means are verified

  And you sit there and insist you are right
  From your popular psychological podium
  While those who rely and depend on you
  They wilt because you don't accept we need... each other

  While sowing the seeds of Utopia
  You invoked a convenient amnesia

  You forgot how to care
  You forgot how to provide 
  Em                C             D              G
  You forgot how to work toward a mea... ningful life
