The Lyrics
Well. I didn't need to search long for the OS. I've been hearing that this song had emotional backing to it and well received. A look back at the year that was from the Futures album.
(Intro)
(Verse 1)
There was a big spy balloon, overhead in the sky
A rise in nation-,alist regimes
A thousand more people can now see
The toxic gossip train, and Santos truth was all (too) lain
East Palestine had chemical spills
While Palestine got bombing chills
(Verse 2)
It is Charles who’s now in charge
A year filled with A.I.
So we never know what is true
So Jan. 6th vids will show, there’s no coup
(Chorus)
You’ll get confused when there are tampons in men’s bathroom
Indictments up to four?
Pee-Wee, Bennett, Kissinger
Cancel Bud Light
Rich men North of Richmond
Cocaine in White House room
(Verse 3)
We can’t forget the memes
It’s in twenty-three
I won’t always watch pri-,mary debates
I will always think about Vivek
(Chorus)
You won’t find paying jobs when you strike for writing, acting
Sniperwolf at your door?
Perry, Turner, Bacharach
Cancel Target
Try that in a small town
Lonely attracting
(Guitar Solo)
(Chorus)
You’re livelihoods will all dis-,appear in Maui fires
Biden falls to the floor?
Hardwick, Somers, Kaczynski
Cancel Disney
Barbenheimer film slaps*
No one gets ceasefires
(Chorus)
You’re cars will keep you trapped in (the) Burning Man desert mud
China wants to make war?
Buffett, Barker, Oceangate
Cancel Kevin
India reaches the moon
Kelce is Swift’s (new) stud
(Verse 1)
There was a big spy balloon, overhead in the sky
A rise in nation-,alist regimes
A thousand more people can now see
The toxic gossip train, and Santos truth was all (too) lain
East Palestine had chemical spills
While Palestine got bombing chills
(Verse 2)
It is Charles who’s now in charge
A year filled with A.I.
So we never know what is true
So Jan. 6th vids will show, there’s no coup
(Chorus)
You’ll get confused when there are tampons in men’s bathroom
Indictments up to four?
Pee-Wee, Bennett, Kissinger
Cancel Bud Light
Rich men North of Richmond

* = Although Sound of Freedom made 15x it's money back compared to either of those films but I digress. There were other stories I wanted to drop. The feud between Canada and India. The grimace shake. Bin Laden's letter to America that trended on TikTok. Pierre Pollievre eating an apple for an interview. Lady Ballers film and the controversy therein. Twitter becoming X and cancelling pro-Palestinian voices. And oh yes...Trump. But that might be next year's song. Also. 200th song I posted to AIR.

Dont know "Jimmy Eat World" at all .. were they a Depression Era Swing band? Were they contemporaries of "Swinging Dick Dickson" (Cue rim shot) ..... And didnt our moral superiors show their colors by memory holeing the death of Marx knows how many hundreds of children in the Maui fires. I guess being consumed in a fire is not such a bad way to go after all.
Early aughts band; primarily remembered for this:
