Theme Song For The Federal Government -- Debt Ceiling Crisis -- Gnarls Barkley -- Crazy -- Just Knew Too Much -- Everybody Knows The Boat is Leaking -- Everybody Knows The Captain Lied -- Nothing To Do With The Bakken

Everybody Knows, Leonard Cohen

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded,
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed,
Everybody knows that the war is over,
Everybody knows the good guys lost,
Everybody knows the fight was fixed,
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich,
That's how it goes.

Everybody knows the boat is leaking,
Everybody knows the captain lied,
Everybody knows this broken feeling,
Like their father or their dog just died.

Running commentary of the "debt crisis" can be found here.



Crazy, Gnarls Barkley

And when you are out there without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch.
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough,
I just knew too much.

But, does that make me crazy?

And I hope that you are
Having the time of your life.
But think twice,
That's my only advice.

Come on now, who  do you
Really think you are?
Bless your soul,
You really think you're in control.

Well, I think you're crazy,
I think you're crazy,
I think you're crazy,
Just like me.

My heroes had the heart
To lose their lives out on a limb
But I think you're crazy,
Just like me.
