doghorse - the rules of the game have changed lyrics

Loading...

we won’t talk of causes, we’ll talk of effects
we’ll whip up a horror of radical sects
we don’t want to talk about why they are vexed
the rules of the game have changed

we’ll tell you we’re listening, but we don’t want to hear
we’ll trash civil liberties, ramp up the fear
and, if after the pm’s job, go up a gear
the rules of the game have changed

you can march in your millions, protest if you dare –
as long as you don’t go near parliament square
the cries of your anger might be heard by us there
and the rules of the game have changed

if we think you’re a bomber, osama’s recruit
there’s no time for questions, jean charles, we’ll just shoot
and the ”misinformed” officers won’t get the boot
the rules of the game have changed

we don’t condone torture – ‘least, not on our lands
for ”unlawful combatants” or ”terrorist bands”
though some say rendition leaves blood on our hands
but the rules of the game have changed

your sons and your daughters must be under your gaze
lest their young minds be fuddled by martyrdom’s haze
extremism’s causes? debate’s been erased
the rules of the game have changed

we’re watching and logging you all, can’t you see?
it’s for your own good, it will keep you all free
the cameras, wiretaps, biometric id…
the rules of the game have changed

you think this sounds scary? you’re starting to cry?
armageddon is coming! the end times are nigh!
we’re ready for rapture, to heaven-ward fly…
the rules of the game have changed

so bring on the horror, the fear and alarm
we won’t rest til infidels all buy the farm
god willing. bush said so. ‘twil work like a charm!…
the rules of the game have changed

and you think i’m joking? and well so you might
you won’t give up liberty without a fight?
check our track record – we’ll soon see who’s right
the rules of the game have changed
