"Framed" lyrics - TODD SNIDER

Hangin' around down on Somethin' To Do Street
I'm like the first dollar bill that they frame
I'm watching media coverage of media coverage
Of some kid who can't make peace with fame
It must be tough, man
The paparazzi and stuff, man

Over serving my country under General Malaise
Said he wasn't making peace until they paid him a raise
He said that killing was paying like I didn't know how
If peace paid, we'd have it made by now
We'd have it new and improved by now
If it paid any

I took a better job pouring fluoride in the water
For the son of the Bilderberg's only daughter
I said "How do you know?" She said "You know how you just know
Somethin' in your gut that you just gotta trust?
Well it's nothin' like that
We's just a-rich as all fuck is all"

Setting the London Bank Association LIBOR rate
Framed for calling out the United States
All-time, prison time, war time economy
Now it all seems so far off of the wall to me
I'm watching every other dollar making change
But me, I've been framed
I've been framed
I'm like the first dollar bill on the wall
Framed
