Don't Understand Lyrics - Singles - John Butler Trio

Did you ever stop to think about 

Whatcha gonna do with your responsibility 

Or did you just take this job 

'Cause it would be good for the money? 

And did you ever stop to think 

About your duty to mankind 

Or did you think ya take this job 

Do favors for you friends and waste all our time? 

And so tell me man, do you realize 

What you're doing to this good country? 

'Cause you're selling it all away 

For your economic stability 

And you justify everything you do with the people 

That you say you're gonna employ 

But the unemployment line is getting bigger every year 

And you treat us all like toys

Every Lyric From Shawn Mendes' Self-Titled New Album 

We're just expendable to you 

Along now with this land 

And there ain't no room left for empathy 

And this is something I don't understand 

We're just expendable to you 

Along now with this land 

And there ain't no room left for empathy 

And this is something I don't understand 

Don't make no sense to me 

Justifying everything we do on our economy 

And there ain't no room 

No more room left for human decency 

Justifying everything we do on our economy 

And the only time you listen to the people 

Is when you think you won't get their vote 

Otherwise you really could not give a shit 

Don't mind rockin' all our boats 

Photos 

And the greatest living friend 

Is a man who goes by the name of apathy 

And we let you get away with everything you like 

So you make all your money 

But I tell you something right now old man 

And this is a fair old warning to you 

That the people are waking up 

And they're gonna make you accountable too 

Just like the Nazi trials in Nuremberg 

Hell not so long ago 

Gonna make you pay for what you have done 

Gonna make you responsible 

'Cause I don't understand, don't understand, 

Don't understand, what head space you are in 

Don't understand, don't understand 

Don't understand, what head space you are in 

Don't understand, don't understand 

Don't understand, what head space you are in 

Don't understand, don't understand 

Don't understand 

So it must be lies you're speaking 

It must be lies you're speaking 

And the land that you love 

He could not give a damn about 

And the ocean that you love 

He could not give a shit about 

And the trees that you love 

Do you think he could give a fuck about 

And the family that you love 

You think he could give a damn about
