Something doesn't sound just right a panel votes you win What would they gain by cheating? box office loss a Sin Yell like you were on a set A tantrum? That might help Tell the world they slighted you but you've really gotta yelp You watched that movie you were in you thought you were so great The voters didn't notice you? It has to be their hate How could they do that, just to you? It really isn't right You say that you were singled out? And you think it's cause you're white? Come on now, just suck it up go take an acting class Pretending they were biased too you're acting like an ass Just thinking, it will happen soon they're making changes quick three to ten, percentage wise the vote will be so slick Will they, all dust off their Oscars? Will they, all just smile with glee? Will they, all look in the mirror? Will they, all say "wasn't me"?
