You say you wonder why folks have to hate
And hurt one another
Why they can’t stay even-steven
And live brother to brother
You can wonder in one hand
And spit in the other, cause baby
You don’t really wanna know

How come there’s always plenty money
For some bullets or some bombs
But there’s never enough for some nurses
Or some teachers, or some moms?
Ain’t it cheaper filling Frigidaires
Than filling up tombs?
You don’t really wanna know

Watch the world through the windshield
Of a guzzle-mobile
You only stop to scrape away the bugs
That die on it
You don’t know or care what’s changing hands
Underneath the table
Just as long as it’s got plenty
Apple pie on it

How come terrorists and Texas tea boys
Share the same last name?
Powerbrokers play with politics
Like some petty private game
And no matter who you vote for
Who you get is just the same
Well baby, you don’t really wanna know

Get your news from the TV
But they got to sell commercials
So they terrify and tease you
Then they tell you to stay tuned
While they advertise the products
That can prevent tonight’s top story
Think you see a ray of sunshine
But you’re really getting mooned

Can’t things ever go a different way
From how they always go?
Do the “haves” just have to keep on reaping
Everything the “have-nots” sow?
Will creature comfort say “so long”
When conscience says “hello”?
Well honey, you don’t really wanna know

You know I hate to be the one
To say “I told you so”
But baby, you don’t really want to know
