How do you feel when you lie?
|
Straight faced while people cry
|
How do you feel when you promise something
|
That you know you'll never do
|
Giving false hope to the people
|
Giving false hope to the underpriviledged
|
Do you really sleep at night?
|
When you know you're living a lie
|
To you it is just a job
|
To the people it hurts to the bone
|
|
Chorus
|
Ooh political games that they play x 4
|
|
What do you say to the orphans?
|
Of the women and men you sent to war
|
What do you say to the widows?
|
Of the men you sent to war
|
Telling them it is good for the country
|
When you know it's good for your ego
|
What a shame.
|
Do you really sleep at night?
|
When you know you're living a lie
|
You talking tough, you talking sincerely
|
Giving false hope to the infected
|
Giving false hope to the affected.
|
To you it is just a job
|
To the people it hurts to the bone.
|
|
Chorus
|
Ooh political games that they play
|
|
Reap till fade.
