π Lyrics
The lobbists get breakfast and discuss their strategies
And the newsman seems excited to report the killing spree
Put advertisements on the shirts of dying refugees
And it's a long, long, long way back
It's a long way back, if we can't find the keys
The collective voice's mouth has somehow lost its wisdom tooth
In the private rocket launcher corporate sponsored voting booth
And just because you repeat a lie
Won't make it the truth
No it's a long, long, long way down
It's a long way down if there's no parachute
And all the paid-off scientists resisting to the bone
They just discovered that polar bears don't give a damn about the new phone
And people living in glass houses shouldn't fly drones
No it's a long, long, long way home
It's a long way home when you're walking alone
So stay together now
Here we go
Just turn
Turn around
And feel yourself unbound
Just turn
Turn around
See beneath your feet is only common ground
And the oil men get dinner on a tray of subsidies
And bullets in the name of God go flying overseas
But if their savior came right now
They'd nail him to a tree
'Cause it's a long, long, long way off
It's a long way off if it's off just three degrees
The wind carries a whisper and it's starting to get loud
You can't fool the youth who see the truth behind the shroud
The trees in the forest that haven't fallen
Are the ones that make the sound
And it's a long, long, long way down
It's a long, long, long way down
But it's a long way from over if we all turn around
Yeah it's a long way from over if we all turn around
And you turn yourself around
And you turn yourself around
And you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about
That's what it's all about!
And the newsman seems excited to report the killing spree
Put advertisements on the shirts of dying refugees
And it's a long, long, long way back
It's a long way back, if we can't find the keys
The collective voice's mouth has somehow lost its wisdom tooth
In the private rocket launcher corporate sponsored voting booth
And just because you repeat a lie
Won't make it the truth
No it's a long, long, long way down
It's a long way down if there's no parachute
And all the paid-off scientists resisting to the bone
They just discovered that polar bears don't give a damn about the new phone
And people living in glass houses shouldn't fly drones
No it's a long, long, long way home
It's a long way home when you're walking alone
So stay together now
Here we go
Just turn
Turn around
And feel yourself unbound
Just turn
Turn around
See beneath your feet is only common ground
And the oil men get dinner on a tray of subsidies
And bullets in the name of God go flying overseas
But if their savior came right now
They'd nail him to a tree
'Cause it's a long, long, long way off
It's a long way off if it's off just three degrees
The wind carries a whisper and it's starting to get loud
You can't fool the youth who see the truth behind the shroud
The trees in the forest that haven't fallen
Are the ones that make the sound
And it's a long, long, long way down
It's a long, long, long way down
But it's a long way from over if we all turn around
Yeah it's a long way from over if we all turn around
And you turn yourself around
And you turn yourself around
And you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about
That's what it's all about!
