Artist: Anti-Flag Album: For Blood And Empire
Lyrics
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, talk it up all night 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 want tiptoe, walk around it Wave the flag and mindlessly salute (whoa-oh, whoa-oh) They don't want to talk about it They want tiptoe, walk around it Wave the flag and cowardly salute (ooooooohhh)
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, talk it up all night 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 want tiptoe, walk around it Wave the flag and mindlessly salute (whoa-oh, whoa-oh) They don't want to talk about it They want tiptoe, walk around it Wave the flag and cowardly salute (ooooooohhh)
(1,2,3,4!) (1,2,3,4!)
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 dont, don't want to, we dont' want to talk about it) We don't want to talk about it (We dont, don't want to, we dont' want to talk)
They don't want to... talk talk talk talk talk about it They want tiptoe, walk around it Wave the flag and cowardly salute (whoa-oh, whoa-oh) They don't want to talk about it They want tiptoe, walk around it Wave the flag and cowardly salute (ooooooohhh)
