Song: The Truth And Other Falsehoods



On the street, there's real heat, in the strumming.
Marching feet, the fascist beat, and the drumming.
It's the clash of the will, for the clueless and the shrill,
As the lies, the lies, the lies, keep on coming.

Keep on coming, the web is humming,
With the lies, the lies, the lies that keep on coming!

Could it be just fate, the secret state, is thumbing
It's nose at all of those who might be gumming
Up it's venal works, the corruption and the 'perks',
As the lies, the lies, the lies, keep on coming.

Keep on coming, the webs' - succumbing,
To the lies, the lies, the lies that keep on coming!

Do we need, to take heed, of the plumbing?
With the planet fracking nexus,
Are we doomed to live in Texas?
As the lies, the lies, the lies, keep on coming.
'On the lam' to the slaughter, all for a drink of water,
As the lies, the lies, the lies keep on coming!

Keep on coming, the web is numbing,
With the lies, the lies, the lies that keep on coming!

If we plead, will we be freed, and then be summoned,
To the court of kangaroo and unseemly ballyhoo.
As the lies, the lies, the lies, keep on coming.
How apt is 'down and dumbing',
When even morons feel trapped like scum in
The lies, the lies, the lies that keep on coming!

Keep on coming, the webs' - succumbing,
To the lies, the lies, the lies that keep on coming!
