Complain Away

(In the style of Styx’s “Come Sail Away”)

They’re com-plaining today
Instead of open discourse, it’s absurdity
‘Cause their face must be free
Free to spew nonsense and obscenity
I’m bored with this crap show
It’s so tired and old
They’ll resurface tomorrow
To bitch and moan and I’ll try
Oh lord I’ll try
To scroll beyond
 
I look to the feed
Insurrections over masks, clouding everything
Some people are mad
Mad at childhood friends with whom they disagree
“Look out for each other”
Is that too much to ask
But somehow we’re butthurt
Over a simple mask
But I’ll try, the best that I can
To scroll beyond
 
A gathering of Karens
Appeared at city halls
To cry about the mask mandates
And bust the mayors’ balls
They- complained away, complained away
Com-plained away with glee (ladies)
Complain away, complain away
Complain away with glee (Wooo)
Complain away, complain away
Complain away with glee (babies)
Complain away, complain away
Complain away with gleeeee
 
I thought that we were able
To swallow foolish pride
But we climbed up on our soapbox
And watched as people died
 
Complain away, complain away
Complain away with glee
Complain away, complain away
Complain away with glee
Complain away, complain away
Complain away with glee
Complain away, complain away
