lyrics

Lies, lies all you hear are lies
They don't come wrapped in any sudden surprise
Why should they come as any kind of shock
From the sermon on the mount to your neighbor next door
From the judge on the bench to the twenty-dollar whore
To the angry punk rocker playing his punk rock

Oh to live a life without illusion
Is to never find yourself at peace
Oh to live a life without illusion
Is to hope for a sweet release

Truth, truth you never hear the truth
To know people mean you have to be a sleuth
Or know well how to read in between the lines

From the farmer in the fields to your mighty president
They say what they mean but you don't know what was meant
All these crazy words that no one ever defines

Blah, blah, blah, all you hear is blah
Makes no sense at all lah-de-dah-de-dah
Might as well go out and live in the woods
From the rabbi on the bima to the guy who comes from Fema
From the teacher in your class to the girl with the big ass
To the people who make all your durable goods
