[Verse]
Em
Well sit atop a mountain

Listen with a soup can
D
In the south he's not a liar

Just the leader of a bad band
C
That in Europe get together and in secret praise the people
Em
My grandad fought in the lowlands

At the Scheldt got shot to pieces
D
So they could rehash their allegiance to a national convenience
C
That preys on easy difference

You know fear it's just a weakness
Em        D          C                Em
And yeah, it's been one of them years

Em
The poor they're there to pity

But only from a distance
D
Pull on your tender heart strings

The price of an every day existence
C
Emma Lazarus was wrong

Fuck your teeming huddled parasitics
Em
Somehow kids from Nicaragua well they're invading West Virginia
D
Maybe they're looking for Ollie North

Maybe what you got you get it in you
C
I seem to remember things that mattered

That no longer count as anything
Em        D          C                Em
And yeah, it's been one of them years


Em
Oh the sea ain't really rising, baby

You're just getting shorter
D
Never mind the science

Them vaccinations cause dysphoria
C
And them pictures of the planet
                                Em
Are doctored so it looks like a place akin to heaven

But only from a distance
D
Nobody likes your headscarf but they wear masks in the resistance
C
Either way forget the answers since we've perfected pointing fingers
Em        D          C                Em
And yeah, it's been one of them years

[Verse]
Em
You can only fool the people

The other half the time we're sleeping
D
So that's pretty much the bag

And bag men never want for reasons
C
So drinks are on the house cause the house always wins
                            Em
And baby you know that I've wasted a lot of time

A lot of time just thinking
D
When thinking's overrated compared to reactionary blinking
C
So I'm just sitting here reflecting on the things I could've done
Em        D          C                Em
And yeah, it's been one of them years
Em        D          C                Em
And yeah, it's been one of them years


Em
Sit atop a mountain

Listen with a soup can
D
For a distant whistle

Buy a dog so he can
C        D          C                Em
And yeah, it's been one of them years
