I’ve been pissing in the wind, quarreling upstream without a paddle
I can hear the hustle and bustling of the city streets they’re moving like cattle
Good god the winters grueling but it sure beats melting with a icy pole in the gutter
Is there anybody listening, have the naysayers taken over the station

We’re loosing our common sense yeah
Common, common, common sense civilian
We’re loosing our common sense yeah
Common, common, common sense civilian

Go and start the martian worshipping, encouraging earthlings to think outside the bubble
Making efforts to keep shepherding. Superstition, fact from the fiction, born without a muzzle
Dazzling with curiosity. Vicious with your comments when your plummet in a scuffle
Never took the time to look for the lollipop lady, Always waiting with patience

We’re loosing our common sense yeah
Common, common, common sense civilian 
We’re loosing our common sense yeah
Common, common, common sense civilian

Keep em coming, communing on the ranch. Do the dancing Dennis Wilson, Charlie Manson shuffle
Maybe you got too much time on your hands? Smoking crack the hypochondriac ain’t very subtle
Digging deep into conspiracies. The moon landing, 911, JFK, Lee Harvey Oswald
Now you're stripped of ya liberties are ya turning into a human surveillance?

You’re the rambunctious rousing type
Loose cannon mutant capitalising on the vulnerable, helpless in a stranglehold
Your names been dragged through the dirt
Six ways from sunday, well deserved
Reputations tarnished, down the gurgler 
We’re loosing our common sense yeah
Common, common, common sense civilian
We’re loosing our common sense yeah
Common, common, common sense civilian
