Blame Game
Letter Seventeen
A song about the ugliness of local politics.
Tim - vocals and guitars. Clarke - backing vocals. Grant - drums. Marz - guitar solo. Tom Martin - bass.
It’s time to play the blame game
Another chance for calling people names
Ignore the facts, they just get in the way
You see your chance to say what you want to say
Dirty secrets abound
Words said behind closed doors, all around town
Time to unleash some dirt
Without thinking about who you might hurt
CHORUS
So join in on the blame game
Take your turn, calling people names
Don’t worry about the truth
Just say the first thing that comes to you
Keep it all locked up tight
Until it’s time to bring it all to light
It’s not a smear campaign
Omit some facts, it’s part of the game
CHORUS
BRIDGE
How’s it feel to take someone down?
Do your hold your head up high when you walk through town?
What if it were to turn around on you?
Would it feel like you’re getting just what you’re due?
