Squaring Zero

I went to the grocer
A kilometer away
I heard two men fighting
This is what I heard one say,

"They find a reason for a war
Tell me what they're fighting for
They call me un-American
For not taking sides with them"

I'm thinking to myself
Its no one's fault
We're squaring zero

There was a void
They weren't seeing eye to eye
Then the other man
Shot these words out in reply,

"They vote for taxes every time
Try to take away what's mine"
They call me selfish, hypocrite
But I want none to do with it

I'm thinking to myself
Its no one's fault
We're squaring zero
