It S A Hit lyrics

Any chimp can play human for a day.
Use his opposable thumbs to iron his uniform
and run for office on election day
fancy himself a real decision maker
and deploy more troops than salt shakers.

But it`s a jungle when war is made,
and you`ll panic and throw your own shit at the enemy.
The camera pulls back to reveal your true identity.
Look, it`s a sheep in wolf`s clothing.
A smoking gun holding ape.

Any asshole can open up a museum.
Put all of the things he loves on display
so everyone could see them.
The house, a car, a thoughtful wife
ordinary moments in his ordinary life.

But if she breaks a smile, she`ll give you away
`cause no one wants to pay to see your happiness.
No one wants to pay to see your day to day
and I`m not buying it either
but I`ll try selling it anyway.

Any idiot can play Greek for a day
and join a sorority or write a tragedy
and articulating all that pain
and maybe you`ll get paid.

But it`s a sin when success complains,
and your writers block- it don`t mean shit.
Just throw it against the wall and see what sticks.
Gotta write a hit.
I think this is it.
It`s a hit.

And if it`s not,
then it`s a holiday for hanging
yeah it`s a holiday for hanging
yeah it`s a holiday for hanging
yeah it`s a holiday for hanging
yeah shoo-bop-shoo-bop my baby

Any fool can play executioner for a day,
and say with fingers pointed in both directions
`he went thataway`,
It`s only a switch or syringe,
aww, exempt from eternal sins.
But you still wear a cross,
and you think you`re gonna get in.

Ah, but the pardons never come from up-stairs.
They`re always a moment too late,
but it`s entertainment
keep the crowd on their toes,
it`s justice, we`re safe.
It`s not a hit, it`s a holiday
shoo-bop-shoo-bop my baby

It`s a holiday for hanging, yeah
It`s a holiday for hanging, yeah
It`s a holiday for hanging, yeah
It`s a holiday for hanging, yeah

I`m a holiday for hanging,
I`m a holiday for hanging,
I`m a holiday yeah
I`m a holiday for hanging,

It`s a holiday for hanging, yeah
