--- Lyrics ---

Verse 1:

Anger and hate is an everyday thing these days
Children in cages
Building a wall of insanity
Anger and hate is a new weapon for votes

In cages
an everyday thing these days
Anger and hate
A wall of insanity

Building a wall of insanity
Anger and hate is a new weapon for votes
Children in cages
Anger and hate is an everyday thing these days
A wall of insanity

Bridge 1:

We Interrupt this program for a special news bulletin
Eccentricness, power and money is a thing for big boys

Corruption, scandals and lies is an a new weapon for votes

Lies, lies, lies and even more lies…. Are more and more part of the everyday life

Chorus 1:


Spewing out lies after lies to the people is a new thing
Stealing from the poor is not an crime these days
Kicking on someone who is already lying down is not an crime these days

is not a crime these days....

Making outrageous statements is new thing for votes
Verbal vomit is an new thing these days

Verbal vomit....

Stealing from the poor is not an crime these days
Spewing out lies after lies to the people is a new thing

Verbal vomit....

Verse 2:

History repeating itself and no one seems to see it coming
People blinded by the truth
Racial slur on the net is new weapon for votes

No one seems to see it coming

Taking advantage of poor and low-skilled people is not an crime these days

No one seems to see it coming

Bridge 2:

We Interrupt this program for a special news bulletin
The realities are ignored… War, violence and starving people is an sad everyday thing these
day

Avaricious and cavemen mentality is an new incurable disease spreading like the plague

We are fed with lies after lies where ever we go and look

Chorus 2:


Killing innocent men, women and children are not a crime any more
War is not an answer
Killing is an not an answer
Taking advantage is not answer

Ethics and moral is long gone
it’s all about power and money these day
Power and money these day….

Killing innocent men, women and children are not a crime any more
Taking advantage is not answer
War is not an answer

Ethics and moral is long gone
it’s all about power and money these day

THE END! / END OF STORY TELLING!
