People Are Pet by The Drew Thomson Foundation Lyrics

They snuck a camera in the courtroom
And all of a sudden you're a star
This ain't the kind of attention you thought would tear your life apart
Now you got an e-book deal coming or maybe or maybe a podcast or two after that
A memoir sponsored by your Miranda rights on body cam being misread

Maybe you could call it
People are pests
But I guess you already knew that
Or people are pets
Lay down and play dead
People are pests
But I guess you already knew that
People are pets
Lay down and play dead

They snuck a camera in the courtroom
And all of a sudden he looks scared
He's not dressin' like he used to
They shaved his beard, they cut his hair
I'm not sure if that's his second wife or kid there sittin' in the first row
But they look disillusioned by all the things he seems to know
People are pests
I guess you already knew that
People are pets
Lay down and play dead
People are pests
But I guess you already knew that
People are pets
Lay down and play dead
Lay down and play dead
Lay down and play dead
Lay down and play dead
Or at least give it a rest
