Apathy, Anxiety, Hostility There’s a poppy in Afghanistan Feeding opium to the true believer There’s an amputee in Vietnam Saying ‘ Mine, Mine, Mine, Mine, Mine’ There’s a baby in Jerusalem With a Star of David tattooed on her head There’s a cashed up Kashmir rebel Saying “leave us alone, leave us alone” And I’m watching it on the TV And it makes me wonder why Must be something in the water Or maybe just a way of life Apathy, Anxiety, Hostility Apathy, Anxiety, Hostility See the clowns in a big White House With the smell of oil oozing from his skin See a robot in a tank in a desert Calling ‘Fire, Fire, Fire, Fire’ See a family in a home made shelter Watching the sky, fear in their eyes And a broadcast news corporation Turning it all into entertainment It’s blazing on the TV But I’m neither low nor high I just keep drinking that water And I keep wondering why Apathy, Anxiety, Hostility Apathy, Anxiety, Hostility Everywhere you go Apathy, Anxiety, Hostility Apathy, Anxiety, Hostility

Deceit and Lies Your best laid plans are floating in the ocean Your hopes and dreams a’ waiting to be heard You sit around and sense a lack of meaning Your next door neighbour got that promotion Your little brother can’t find his way You sit around and sense a lack of meaning You want a chemical to get you out of here You want to drive away your anger and your fear You want a role to play that fits you down to size But all they offer you is more deceit and lies You’ve got your memories, a happy childhood But now it seems so long ago You sit around and sense a lack of meaning You want a chemical to get you out of here You want to drive away your anger and your fear You want a role to play that fits you down to size But all they offer you is more Deceit and lies Lie ie ie ie ie ie ies Lie ie ie ie ies, Lie ie ie ies So take your chemical to get you out of here And maybe drive away your anger and your fear Then find a role to play that fits you down to size But don’t you let them give you more Deceit and lies Deceit and lies Deceit and lies Deceit and lie ie ie ie ie ie ie ies Lie ie ie ie ie ie ies, Lie ie ie ie ie ie ies Lie ie ie ie ie ie ies Lie ie ie ie ies Lies
