about

Week 18 of the 52 songs project

lyrics

I'm tired of the truth manipulators
I'm tired of the backroom operators
I'm weary of the lies, I've had enough of spies
I just want the truth

I want to take the spin out of the game
I want the pie to cut and come again
Look me in the eye, tell me how and tell me why
I just want the truth

I’ve had enough of wordy obfuscation
Of pitching to a voting generation
Of trying to appease the forest for the trees
I just want the truth

You’re lining up to push your own agenda,
I think that everyone would feel better
If you all came clean and told us where it’s at, say what’s really so, ‘cos you and I both know that your mouth is filled with flies
when a lie ends in a lie ends in a lie ends in a lie

I’m tired of defensive allegations
Of social networks and their situations
That allow you to become anyhow and anyone
I just want the truth

I’m finished with the lobbies and their words
Their research and the weasel worded slurs
The waxy faces flinch when you get them in a pinch
I just want the truth

I wonder if we’ll ever see the day
When everyone will know that what they say
Is for the highest good, not just for the selfish few
I just want the truth
