| THREATS, LIES, AND EMPTY GESTURES |
| You always see them talking When there�s nothing left to say Makin� up their stories Based on what they did today They think that they�re the greatest Thing to ever walk the earth A fantasy on which they base Everything since birth Threats, lies, and Empty Gestures Governments are crumbling What do you have to do? Policy is coming down Will your freedom come down too? Get your flag a-waving Head down to the street Fight for all that you believe in Forget about the heat Threats, lies, and Empty Gestures Sitting in a condemned building Waiting out the storm Evicted twice for god-knows-what It�s a shelter of some form President will help you out As if he�s free to pick And the county jail wants you, too Its all rhetoric Threats, lies, and Empty Gestures |
