Testo Pay Attention - Us3
Testo della canzone Pay Attention (Us3), tratta dall'album An Ordinary Day In An Unusual Place (Bonus Version)
A lie is a falsehood—everybody knows it
Come to a crossroads, because I realize that
Things aren't what they seem—and I see a pattern
Of people and their dreams regularly shattered
We trust in our nation—that's where we are livin'
To allow our elevation to more than survival
But no one asks the question, when we need the answer
"Are we in the right direction?" We don't think it matters
We wonder why we're in the situation that we're in
The real truth is we're not payin' attention
We're freely marchin' on to exploitation
We're blindly movin' toward extermination
Because every lie we hear has a justification
And the truth we deny is public relations
You think you have freedom—that's what they all say
But your mind doesn't function—overmedicated
Because of depression—too much information
And you have no direction—just don't pay attention
There's so much pollution—from crime to radiation
Which leads to destruction—everything is wasted
But political action—everybody risin'
Is deemed a distraction—well, well, well, well
We wonder what is happening
And how we got into this situation
We're not payin' attention
We're freely marchin' on to exploitation
We're blindly movin' toward extermination
Because every lie we hear has a justification
And the truth we deny is public relations
You say we need discussion—about all our problems
Then we need protection—from those who caution
We should be talkin' preservation—for our children
Which leads to evolution—higher, higher
There can't be hesitation—if we want the real truth
And no more reservations—and you know that means you
What we need as a nation—people come together
With the spirit of revolution, around the world, yeah!
We don't have to believe the words that they spin
If we just keep payin' attention
We're freely marchin' on to exploitation
We're blindly movin' toward extermination
Because every lie we hear has a justification
And the truth we deny is public relations
We're freely marchin' on to exploitation
We're blindly movin' toward extermination
Because every lie we hear has a justification
And the truth we deny is public relations
