Slow Day at The Outrage Factory
written by Ed Masley
lyrics
It was a slow day at the outrage factory and everybody needed a thrill
They had a side to take
They had a point to make
They had two or three hours to kill
So we manufactured something
Now it’s good and tense
And you could argue that it’s evil
But in our defense
You know some people won’t be happy ‘til they’ve taken offense
And it wouldn’t pay to let them down
It was a slow day at the outrage factory
I guess it was a wonderful life
All you could see for miles was happiness and smiles
Yeah, you could cut the tension with a knife
And now they’re waitin’ on a savior to restore the hate
The foreman said, My God I hope we’re not too late
But we’d been dreamin’ up kerfuffles since a quarter to eight
Yeah, we didn’t even break for lunch
You know the people just want something to keep them all divided
Some hate to keep them warm at night
One point on which we’re all united
We’re all just looking for a fight
It was a slow at the outrage factory
The government was startin’ to sweat
Without some new distractions
To incite the factions
They might need a stronger opiate
Meanwhile the foreman he was pacing, jobs were on the line
He knew he’d never get that diamond for his valentine
Without some fodder for the fight in time for News at Nine
And it wouldn’t do to let her down
You know the people just want something to keep them all divided
Some hate to keep them warm at night
One point on which we’re all united
We’re all just looking for a fight
