Biggest lie


"Ladies and gentlemen, we interrupt our program of dance-music to bring you a special bulletin from the intercontinental radio news."

The writing's on the wall, but no one cares at all
To convey the message that we wrote ourselves.
Destroy the walls it mends and burn the candle at both ends.

(I really think we are)
Becoming more mindless of the heart,
(Becoming everything we hate),
Building our castles for the future.
(A Trojan Horse is at the gate),
Built by the enemy that we made.

This false sincerity, we hear celebrities.
"Buy a hybrid if you can with ten years of your fruit stamps."
Caught myself listening to sheltered excuses for human-beings.

(So it becomes elite).
They separate, then what have we got?
(Nothing in common with their wealth).
One clip can change public opinion,
(One sin can send you straight to hell).
Learned how to lie and not get caught.
More piss in the melting pot.

Shut out majority with riches.
(Their words become more valuable)
Than the voice of a million starving children,
(That they have a million ways to solve).
Left freedom bleeding on the roadside.
We believe the biggest lie.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics BIGGEST LIE of NO USE FOR A NAME is also present in the album The feel good record of the year (2008)
