You've got covert action 
prejudice to extremes 
you've got primitive cunning 
and high tech means 
you've got eyes everywhere 
but people see through you 

you've got good manipulators 
got your store of dupes 
you've got the idiot clamour 
of your lobby groups 
you like to play on fears 
but people see through you 

you've got instant communication 
instant data tabulation 
you got the forces of occupation 
but you don't get capitulation 
cause people see through you 

you've got the sounding brass 
you've got the triumph of the will 
you do what you want to 
and we pay the bills 
you hype the need for sacrifice 
but people see through you 

you've got anti-matter language 
contrived to conceal 
you've been lying so long 
you don't know what's real 
you're a figment of your own imagination 
and people see through you 

you've got lip service tributaries 
you've got death fetish mercenaries 
you hold the tickets to the cemetaries 
you're BIG and BAD and SCARY 
but people see through you
