Lies And Hypocrisy Lyrics

They'll say they came as saviors, and then they'll say they came to keep the peace

They'll say it to civilians while they're shot and left to die in the street

Obscene

They'll say they came to set them free - The results are always guaranteed

Nothing but lies and hypocrisy

They'll try to play the victim while they bomb another city to the ground

Wipe out the population while they claim that they just freed another town

Shot down

They always need an enemy - Create some false reality

Nothing but lies and hypocrisy

And then when everyone's hyped up

We know they're all gonna line up

Can't wait for their chance to sign up

And then when everyone's bought in

We know they're all gonna fall in

Just say that the country's calling

And then when they fall like dominoes

We'll say that they died as heroes

Make sure they're buried in their best, because

We sold them on our righteous cause

Our national collective loss

Down in the ground with a flag and a low rent cross

They'll send children off to fight and lie to them why they should want to go

Sacrifice and duty, helping build a better tomorrow

Not so

Toy soldiers sent to war - No idea what they're dying for

Nothing but lies and hypocrisy

And once again

It's all the same excuses

With all the same abuses

We all know what the truth is

We know who always loses out
