Paul Thorn - Mediocrity is King lyrics

In this crazy world where we all abide A wise man walks and a foolish man rides They manufacture stars on the TV stage Johnny Cash couldn't get arrested today Everything's changed I can't see who's to blame But I do know one thing Mediocrity's King The Five & Dime, the corner drug store They used to shake your hand when you walked through the door Red, white, and blue. It was our little town 'Til the supercenter came and it shut 'em all down Everything's changed I can't see who's to blame But I do know one thing Mediocrity's King When you don't expect much Then you're never let down You get the kind of government we've got now Republicans and Democrats are breakin' my heart I can't tell them sons of b**hes apart Everything's changed I can't see who's to blame But I do know one thing Mediocrity's King
