Big Lie
Pick up up my guitar and lay the message down About the crazy kind of things that make the world go around Like the money, the power, the Glory on High Everybody's living with the big, big lie C'mon The Profiteering Corporation's Party Line Says, 'Trust in us people, everything will be fine.' But that's a big lie Baby, that's a big lie The disappearing forests should be no cause for alarm The 'Greenhouse Effect' won't do us any harm It's all a big lie They're selling us a big lie It's the age old game of supply and demand We're eating up the planet just as fast as we can And it's a big lie Getting bigger all the time It's a big lie Yeah the truth is hard to find In the big lie Ooo, Yeah It's a big, big... big, big... big, big lie Such a big, big lie Taxes going up... Like a hot air balloon The rich keep getting richer while the poor keep getting screwed In the big lie Welcome to the big lie The politics and power out of reach and out of touch And all their fancy talking... never did account for much In the big lie Only in the big, big lie
While we gaze in admiration at the Emperor's new clothes It's a big lie Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Getting bigger all the time It's a big lie The truth is hard to find In the big lie Ooo, Yeah Big, big... big, big... big, big lie Huh Old Time religion on the TV everyday Selling tickets to heaven in the fundamental way The media tells it like it is... without a doubt But for a rating point or two They'll sell you short, then sell you out Broadway to Hollywood it's on with the show But it's the burned out myth of sex and drugs and Rock 'n' Roll The cheque is in the mail and God is on our side Don't worry... be happy LIVE THE BIG LIE Yeah yeah yeah... wooohooo No matter how you slice it, it's always the same The big lie seems to be the name of the game And you can play it if you want to but you get what you deserve I guess it just depends upon which master you serve Does my song ring true, well you get to decide Or is it just another chapter In the big, big... big, big... big, big... big, big... big, big... big, big... Ah come on help me out here (Crowd Voices) Big, big... big, big... big Big, big... big, big... big (Rik alone) Big, big lie
