There's a lie I've told myself so much
I started thinking it was true
Dunno why I want to believe so much
but I obviously do
maybe something in my personality type
or buried deep in my dna
but whatever it is its gonna have to go
before my whole life slips away
The ministry of propaganda
drops a memo through my door
this weeks special is terrorism
replacing last weeks war
the people on the teevee screen
are smiling as they wave
I feel like I'm just killing time
til I can turn round in my grave
They say the truth will set you free
thats the biggest lie of all
the truth will blow your mind apart
as it grabs you by the balls
no matter how far you try to run
it'll find you hiding there
the truth is a pistol you point at your head
in the black pits of despair
Chaos is such a pretty thing
but it sure as hell aint just
The guilty put the good on trial
grind their bodies into dust
This is the nature of our world
our species and our race
just a bunch of talking monkeys
fucking up the whole damn place
And some see this state of affairs as wrong
the most wretched ones of all
The syphilitic whore of truth
has paid those fools a call
And they obsess and plot and scheme
how to sort the whole deal out
Trying to spread their own infection
"revolution!" goes the shout
More bloodshed comes as the cause gains strength
to oppose the tyranny
Our oppressors hung from the gallows pole
or burned in effigy
The ones who led the countercharge
replace the ones who fell
Once more the little guy gets humped
and his freedom sent to hell
No closer to utopia
faintest glimmer still unseen
The truth puts paid to that pretty fiction
the horizon of our wildest dreams
better to lie and cheat and steal
and send our sons to war
it's what us hairless apes do best
it's what we're fucking for!
