christ vs. warhol – secret lyrics
secret lyrics
shh… shh.. shh… secret!
you wanna wake the masses?
you wanna start a riot?
gotta keep this secret!
shhhh! alright…
they’re posturing, demanding transparency
but do you really wanna see what lies beneath?
the emperor is naked with a toothless grin
but the spectre lingers on just below the surface
there’s a horrific landscape lurking just behind the veil
they’ll sell you back the liberties that you put up for sale
it’s all the same, a different name, a different style
but a distraction all the while
secret! purse your lips and keep it!
you wanna tear the system? you wanna live outside it?
they label healthcare akin to fascism
as they kowtow to the gods capitalism
force+feeding images of prosperity
they feed you what you want to hear, so comforting
when the corporations sh+ll out the big money
they got one thing right: freedom isn’t free
there’s a price on each and every politician’s head
and a corporate logo on their sleeve
secret! purse your lips and keep it!
get real, they’ll proclaim, dash your hopes
and your dreams under words of disdain
keep your passion secret, purse your lips and keep it!
it serves them right, alright…
and the opposition postures like they’re doing g+d’s work
tossing tea into the harbor in a passion play for jerks
masquerading as the voice of the working man
then kick the feet out from under him again and again
murdock’s minions calling out the actions of the left
as if there really even were a difference
sell out the government to corporate wealth
and they do it in the open, there’s no need to use stealth anymore
and big brother knows what big brother knows
and his cronies in communications aid and abet
and big brother knows what big brother knows
and his cronies in communications aid and abet
and big brother knows what big brother knows about you
didn’t you post it on facebook anyway?
you gave it away…
throw us a bone + they call two parties a choice
throw us a bone + they talk down to you if you raise your voice
throw us a bone + in a land where mj is the news
throw us a bone + the history of our forebears just leaves us confused
throw us a bone + it’s election time now you can have a say
throw us a bone + but if you vote your heart you’ll throw it away
throw us a bone + call your senator and whine into his ear
throw us a bone + call your senator and tell him all your hopes and all your fears
throw us a bone + if you’re a lobbyist then money talks
throw us a bone + if you’re the common man then you can walk
throw us a bone + throw us a bone
wake up!
