Opinions

Bourgeois:
They fought the wars
For YouTube comment boards
Lost their souls
For Twitter trolls
Everyone’s rushing for public discussion
In the New York Times
And the Mail Online
And I’m exhausted by all those voices
Seven billion people in the world
You’ve gotta be loud if you want to be heard
Bourgeois:
I think this
Maurice:
Well I think that
Bourgeois:
Well I’m offended and that’s the end of it
Maurice:
I’m offended by your offence
Bourgeois:
I’m offended that you’re offended by my offence
Both:
I don’t want your opinions
I don’t need your opinions
I don’t want your opinions
I’m very bored of opinions
I don’t want your opinion poll
I don’t want your opinion piece
I don’t want your opinionated
Opinions in my face
Bourgeois:
The Greeks invented democracy
Tzatziki and sodomy
I think we can all agree
Which of those
Is the worst of three
Censorship makes me sick
But sometimes it has its benefits
In The Guardian comment is free
But maybe it shouldn’t be
Both:
Cos I’m exhausted by all those voices
I don’t want your opinions
I don’t need your opinions
I don’t want your opinions
I’m very bored of opinions
I don’t want your opinion poll
I don’t want your opinion piece
I don’t want your opinionated
Opinions in my face
In our humble opinion
There’s too many opinions
Only need one opinion
So just have ours
In our humble opinion
There’s too many opinions
Only need one opinion
So just have ours
Bourgeois:
So wait a minute. Would that be, like, a full ­on dictatorship?
Maurice:
Yeah
Bourgeois:
Is that OK?
Maurice:
It’s very on trend
Bourgeois:
Great!
Both:
You don’t need your opinions
Abandon your opinions
You can use our opinions
We’re very good at opinions
You don’t need your opinions
Abandon your opinions
You can use our opinions
We’re very good at opinions
