Ron Sexsmith - Dig Nation Lyrics

In Dig Nation there are plenty of people
Who never can see the chapel for the steeple
Streets are full of the self righteous in Dig Nation

In Dig Nation you will never be befriended
Not by the humourless or easily offended
It all depends on the self righteous in Dig Nation

For he among us without sin
You’d better cast the first stone
The bee who stung us is dying
But a bee never has to atone

In Dig Nation it’s already been decided
Court of opinion is how you are indicted
Justice sides with the self righteous in Dig Nation

In the last bridge I sung (at least I think I did)
You’d better cast the first stone
Why are the freaks among us not invited?
A freak has to go it alone
A freak has to go it alone

In Dig Nation how they mean to divide us
Without forgiveness they never will unite us
There’s no love in sight only self righteous indignation
And justice sides with the self righteous in Dig Nation
I know a place where they can shove all their indignation
