Just Tell Me The Truth

Just Tell Me Truth
(c) 2007 Perry Mills (BMI)

Kings and Queens and royal gents
Popes and priests and presidents
Gurus and shamanic healers
Pharmacological dealers
Zealots, righteous in rebirth
Worshipers of Mother Earth
Mantra-chanting meditators
Global-banking gladiators

Glowing tubes that mesmerize
Netting minds like butterflies
Hapless flying in the night
Like moths misled into a light
Information overload
Trust me, then do what you're told
Tell me who you think I am
Give me meaning in a can.

Just tell me the truth.
But if you haven't got a clue,
then stop pretending that you do.

Charismatic politicians
Conspirators of secret missions
Never let a question land
That they can slip with slight of hand
A pseudo-rational seduction
An over-budget stage production
Prepackaged aim to please
Conveniently processed sleaze.

Just tell me the truth.
But if you haven't got a clue,
then stop pretending that you do.

Just tell me the truth.
But if you haven't got a clue,
then stop pretending that you do.
