Lyrics
Phantoms of the second civil war
Reference to imaginary or elusive aspects of the second civil war.
You gather them around
Attracting or assembling these elusive aspects.
And every time you open up your mouth,
Whenever you speak.
A loud of horseshit comes flying right back out
You express a lot of nonsense or lies.
Flying right back out
The nonsense or lies are promptly spread.
Mr. Freedom big time talker, oh but thank you very much but no
Addressing someone as 'Mr. Freedom,' who talks extensively but is not appreciated.
Mr. Freedom big time talker, oh but thank you very much but no
Reiteration of the previous line.
Serious business on your lapel
Serious matters pinned to your clothing, likely badges or symbols.
Let the people, know how you feel
Expressing your emotions or thoughts to the public.
And every bumper sticker on the back of your car
Every sticker on your car conveys a part of your identity or beliefs.
Makes you feel a little more real,
Enhances your sense of authenticity or reality.
A little more real
Reaffirmation of feeling more genuine due to stickers.
Mr. Freedom big time talker, oh but thank you very much but no
Reiteration of addressing 'Mr. Freedom' as someone who talks extensively but isn't respected.
Mr. Freedom big time talker, oh but thank you but no!
Repeated rejection despite the talkative nature.
I bet you would like nothing better
You'd prefer chaotic circumstances to arise.
Than for the shit to hit the fan
Hoping for trouble or conflict to occur.
And from the safety of your arm chair,
Feeling safe while others face difficulties.
Probably there just glad that no one else but you can possibly understand
Content that others may not understand the situation except for you.
Mr. Freedom big time talker, oh but thank you very much but no
Repeated assertion that 'Mr. Freedom' is not appreciated despite talking.
Mr. Freedom big time talker, oh but thank you very much but no
Rejection reiterated once more.
Thanks for thinking of me
Gratitude expressed for considering the speaker's perspective.
Mr. Freedom big time talker, oh but thank you very much but no
Reiteration of rejecting 'Mr. Freedom.'
That's mighty kind of you
Expressing gratitude for the kind thoughts despite rejection.
Mr. Freedom big time talker, oh but thank you very much,
Reiteration of addressing 'Mr. Freedom' as talkative but not accepted.
But no
Final rejection despite gratitude expressed.
