   "...I need some pencils...               [Various samples, seemingly from  ]

    Will you be using 'em for company       [flipping through news broadcasts.]

    business?...One eight hundred nine 

    nine two...For cash back, see store for details...

    Meeting rebel leaders, he says he also plans to thank 

    Russian soldiers for their work in Chechnya...Work better..."



    People around here are driving me crazy

    Watching them run is making me lazy

    Trying to buy a place in my head

    Selling me lines I've already read

    Speaking my name to try to confuse me

    Say it again you're starting to lose me



    That's alright I'm okay

    It happens every single day

    It's all the same

    But I'm not blind



    Nevermind

    It's either you or me

    And I can't see the difference

    You or me

    I find that I can't see the difference



    When are these changes going to stick

    Eating my words is making me sick

    Some of the time 

    I'm practically sacred

    Reading my mind

    Is leaving you naked

    You'd rather give it away than receive it

    One of these days I'm gonna believe it.



    That's alright I'm okay

    It happens every single day

    It's all the same

    But I'm not blind



    Nevermind

    It's either you or me

    And I can't see the difference

    You or me

    I find that I can't see the difference



    You or me

    And I can't see the difference

    You or me

    I find that I can't see the difference



    You or me

       That's alright I'm okay

       It happens every single day

    And I can't see the difference

       It's all the same

       But I'm not blind

       Nevermind

       It's either

    You or me

       That's alright I'm okay

       It happens every single day

    I find that I can't see the difference

       It's all the same

       But I'm not blind



   "...my position was that if anybody      [Right-channel samples from ???]

    who's a Christian would go there, 

    they're not only aligning themselves to the demagogue, 

    they're aligning themselves to the antichrist! Which 

    by the way, this man is an antichrist..."

   "Did you see the video?"

   "I didn't need to see the video to call the guy an antichrist..."
