Tension ss

Tension ssit's all that I know

 I got tension out in traffic

 I got tension in my office

 I got tension and it's everywhere that I go

(Spoken)

 After the bad guy killed off all the underdeveloped characters

 The good guy put a bullet right through his head

 The screenwriter stood up and told us that all the loose ends had been

 tied, justice is irrelevant

 Violent problems need violent solutions

 'Cause in America we like our bad guys dead

It's called box office, baby

 It's bigger than the damn Stones

(Spoken)

Well they roped off all of my problems and pointed their fingers at addiction

 'Cause they know if you're doin' the pointin' no one's lookin' at you

 But you know this war on drugs it's funded by the Tobacco and Alcohol Commissions

 It's not what drugs you're strung out on they care about as much as whose

You see people....people still love drugs

 Y'all do anyway...I'm over it

Tension ss

Tension ss

Tension ssit's all that I know

I got tension in my classroom

I got tension in my courtroom

I got tension and it's everywhere that I go

(Spoken)

When rock and roll first came around the preachers all went crazy

 But soon that wasn't enough to bring people in the door

So now they jump on any scandal that they can to try and save me

'Cause they know I don't buy that crap about the Devil's music anymore

Republicans

 That's what scares people these days

 That and Democrats

(Chorus)
