The {Downing Street} memo says...
|
|
...We gotta work to make the facts fit the false charges
|
Pull the wool over the eyes of the filthy masses
|
Stab the people in the back for the corporate choice
|
Roll the propaganda out using The People's Voice
|
|
We don't want to talk about it...
|
|
The press scribble scribble every half-truth spoke
|
Then shoot it round the country like an April Fools joke
|
Hype the nation for a Desert Storm love affair
|
Wave the stars and stripes like you just don't care!
|
|
They talk it up all day, they talk it up all night
|
They talk until their face turns blue - Red white and blue!
|
But when the truth escapes the night and crawls into the day
|
We find the picture still askew
|
|
They don't want to... talk talk talk talk talk about it
|
They wanna tiptoe, walk around it
|
Wave the flag and mindlessly salute
|
They don't want to talk about it
|
They wanna tiptoe, walk around it
|
Wave the flag and cowardly salute
|
|
And on the TV screen...
|
...Diversion and aversion is the flavor of the day
|
Was it WMDs? Or Democracy?
|
Blame it on MI-6 or the CIA
|
The White House Press Corpse only has one thing to say...
|
|
"We don't want to talk about it!"
|
|
The White House boils over, "Al Jazeera got it wrong!"
|
The Press Corpse jumps onboard singing the White House song
|
While over in Iraq thousands are dead because of lies
|
The spineless war drumming-press corpse have taken lives
|
|
They talk it up all day, they talk it up all night
|
They talk until their face turns blue - Red white and blue!
|
But when the truth escapes the night and crawls into the day
|
We find the picture still askew
|
|
They don't want to... talk talk talk talk talk about it
|
They wanna tiptoe, walk around it
|
Wave the flag and mindlessly salute
|
They don't want to talk about it
|
They wanna tiptoe, walk around it
|
Wave the flag and cowardly salute
|
|
Fires fueled on endless lies
|
Black shrouds coat desert skies
|
A nation's viewpoint blurred and led
|
As embeds report what they're fed
|
|
We don't want to talk about it...
|
We don't want to talk about it...
|
We don't want to talk about it...
|
We don't want to talk about it...
|
|
(We don't want to talk about it...)
|
We don't, don't want to, we don't wanna talk about it
|
(We don't want to...)
|
We don't, don't want to, we don't wanna talk
|
|
They don't want to... talk talk talk talk talk about it
|
They wanna tiptoe, walk around it
|
Wave the flag and cowardly salute
|
They don't want to talk about it
|
They wanna tiptoe, walk around it
|
Wave the flag and cowardly salute
|
