Hail To The Thief 歌詞

When i was a boy, i pledged My allegiance to the flag It's image that of righteousness Since faded into life less rag A mirror of what we've become A portrait of the deaf and dumb But maybe being blind is being free Some one's stealing all our unity With idle hands they sow the seeds Growing only false democracy Who can we thank for all our grief Hail to the thief It's hard to see through all this honesty Tattered by the weather Torn from violent storm Our pride of who we are Has been washed And beaten into form What have we become Funny looking caricatures Our belief in who we are Confiscated for their purse Something's draining our identity Like being weakened by a curse Politicians feed hypocrisy Who can we thank for all our grief Hail to the thief It's hard to see through all this honesty Hail to the thief Idiocy beyond belief Hail to the thief We're being sold short for dishonesty Hail to the thief
