Will you tell the truth?
Or will you tell a lie?
Vodka and Vermouth,
Is that your alibi?
Too slow to understand
Too simple to criticize
Too big to reprimand
Too smug to pay the price
Will you play the part
Of an innocent?
Or reveal your heart
And what it really meant?
Too cold to feel our pain
Too proud to compromise
Too greedy for the gain
To look in our eyes
You lied as you stole our future
You stole our national pride
You lied
When you said you were on our side
You lied
What about the money
You and your cronies stole?
From the land of Milk and honey
You've buried us in a hole
You acted like a winner
While losing everything
The saint is really a sinner
And pain is what you bring
You lied as you stole our future
You stole our national pride
You lied
When you said you were on our side
You lied
All of the time you played on our fears
We held our breath for all of those years
Hoping you would prove us wrong
We wanted to love you all along
But you lied... as you stole our future
You stole our national pride
You lied
When you said you were on our side
You lied
You lied
