[Vic Chesnutt - Cobbham Blues lyrics]
Sadly, dramatically a hypocrite
You’re a hypocrite you a hypocrite
A typical, liberal hypocrite
You spearhead the zoning
Fight against developers
But then when it comes down
To your very own backyard
Well then development is just what
You go and do
Well how could I NOT have a problem with you
You’re a hypocrite you a hypocrite
Sadly, dramatically a hypocrite
You’re a hypocrite you a hypocrite
Typical, liberal hypocrite
Your Volvo bumper sticker is green
Yeah, I know the kinda green you mean
In your neighborhood newsletter
You rail against the speculators
When you yourself are in
Neighboring hoods speculating
Yes, you are yes, you are
Yes, you are
And that
Makes you
A hypocrite
You a hypocrite you a hypocrite
You an ugly, fugly hypocrite
You’re a hypocrite you a hypocrite
Typical, liberal hypocrite
Yeah, every local ballot you campaign
Against the Chamber of Commerce
But then when it comes down to
Your very own personal purse
Well, even big Dick Cheney would approve
Of the way that you make your assets move
Of the way that you make your assets move
Yeah
