A new wave track about the establishment negatively affecting society.

LYRICS:

Radio, internet and TV.

Avert your eyes and try to see.

Sly Mister Lie offers you a coke.

On the condition that you end up broke.

He knows just where to get you where it hurts.

He knows just how to drag you through the dirt.

Race, creed, age, religion.

Everyone’s fucked. So keep on your guard!

Sly Mister Lie is on the prowl.

Sly Mister Lie won’t give you no peace.

Sly Mister Lie outsmarts the owl. He melts our brains to drivel.

The modern world is a Ponzi scheme.

Sly Mister Lie plays on our belief.

That working hard guarantees us wealth.

Your soul’s now stock up on the devil’s shelf.

Time goes by, not a single cent.

And Uncle Sam is breathing down your neck.

It’s a constant war, keeping up with bills.

Sly Mister Lie swoops down for the kill.

[Chorus]

[Solo]

You’re working hard and going far.

You’re gonna be a famous movie star.

Nothing more than a big pipe dream.

All of these lies’re gonna make you scream!!

[Double Chorus & Adlib]
