"I Can Explain Everything (Part II)" lyrics - T BONE BURNETT

I have a suggestion in answer to the question
How can we make the world easier to bear
We could go on a mission to get all politicians
And preachers off of the air

'Cause when you're talking to that many people
At one time
You're bound to be lying to someone
At some time

So let's band together
And 'cause a collision
And throw all of these liars
Off television

I can explain everything
I can explain everything
I can explain everything

How can anyone spend six million dollars every four years
To get a job that makes sixty thousand per?

How can a man stand straight-faced with tears in his eyes
And plead for millions when his motives are a blur?

The genius of France can be seen at a glance
And it's not their fabled fashion scene
It's not that they're mean or their wine or cuisine
I refer of course to the guillotine

(The French knew how to lynch)
(How to lynch)

I can explain everything
I can explain everything
I can explain everything
I can explain everything
