The lower they go, the higher they flyThere's more than one way to play and I say an eye for an eyeIt's been going too far, been going too far for far too longI want to sent it on fire, I want to set it on fire, drop the bombSurprise, surprise. The government lies.It's okay to kill in the name of democracyAnd dictators are swell if they like the smell of American moneyIt's making me sick, I want no part of itStop waving that flagAll you idiots bought right into itAnd who's left holding the bag?Surprise, surprise. Surprise, surprise.The government lies.This capsized country's sinking fastI've got leeches and landlords and lawyersCrawling all over my assWe've been playing along and they'veBeen playing the song we wanted to hearBut the melody's meaninglessWasted on my earsSurprise, surprise. Surprise, surprise.The government lies.Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off (etc.) Aus Songtexte Mania
