Will Varley - We Don't Believe You lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

I dunno what I'm scared of, but I know that I am scared

All the headlines feel like nightmares when I'm lyin' in my bed

If the virus doesn't kill us someone might chop off our heads

But no one chops down Yew trees on Parliament Square

And they'll lie all day in Westminster, and they'll lie all day in court

And they'll lie about it later on the evenin' news reports

Till there's a hundred thousand bodies lyin' on the desert floor

And they'll point their guns at Russia and they'll start anotha war

And In the media offices all the paintbrushes are there

To fill the lines with black and white and fill our minds with fear

And pump us full of fashion and a dull sense of despair

Till we're well behave consumers with no questions and no cares

(Chorus)

But we don't believe u, we don't believe u

we don't believe u anymore

We don't believe u, we don't believe u

we don't believe u anymore

(Verse 2)

And they'll pass the buck and cover it up and distort every hand

Till the picture that they're paintin' is too hard to understand

And the canvas stretches over every border of every land

Cross the trade routes and religions and those bodies in the sand

And if we're after Britain first then we should probably be last

Befo' UK independence we should give back what isn't ours

Like the shirts and ties we're wearin' made by slaves from afar

But those shirts and ties can't hide the emblems tattooed on their hearts

And we should give back all the oceans and the islands in the sky

Cos' they don't belong to any man and no man has the right

To tell anotha human bein' that their access is denied

To any corner of this planet or any moment of their lives

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

And the music on the adverts plays like prisoners of war

Who've been forced to sell the weapons that they used to abhor

And if u tried to ask questions then they'll back u into corners

And say u can't ask questions if u haven't got the answers

While imaginary money grows on electronic trees

And trickles through the masses and fuels the disease

Cos' the only epidemic with no sign of a vaccine

Are the global corporations and their foreign policies

(Chorus)
