Cheap Irony Video (MV)

The shoes are dropping everywhere
Like hail upon the land
And I can only guess
That there's a need to understand
Why every kind of innocence
Is shadowed by the law
There's nothing you can know for sure
But rain in Panama
Where suspicion grows
That the deepest faith might fail
And the hardest work
Might be the least regarded
And limber tongues repeat the oft told tale
How the righteous path
Just leads to where it started
Oh no, I'm thinking that's cheap irony
Muddy water in the aimless sea
That's cheap irony
Muddy water in the aimless sea
That's cheap irony
I see my sense of comedy is growing mighty thin
I picture on the face of God a wide coyote grin
The fatal twist of lemon
The brutal child of ten
If I ever was more confused
I don't remember when
And confusion claims all the best of my intentions
And the window on my panic opens wide
And blowing though is truth and wild invention
So I'm never sure just what to take in stride
Muddy water in the aimless sea
So, the choices made and the ones I've disregarded
Dance around like angels on a pin
I remember what they looked like when I started
And how they're never gonna look that way again
Oh no, I'm thinking that's cheap irony
Muddy water in the aimless sea
That's cheap irony
Muddy water in the aimless sea
That's cheap irony
