A Thousand Lies Lyrics by Machine Head

A Thousand Lies Lyrics

    What is a man that stays true to the game
    But has to cheat a little to get by
    Well that's a person that I know too well
    Don't want to know, but I don't have to ask why
    Everyone like a loaded gun
    You want some shit, I'll fuckin' pound you, son
    Don't need a reason, pain I'm feelin'
    I gotta vent or else I blow inside

    Pre-chorus:
    Introspection, termination
    Can't tell right from wrong
    Fed up with this whole system
    It's gone on far too long

    Chorus:
    You tell a thousand lie, been told a thousand times
    Your words we hear, but we cannot sympathize
    Thousand lies been told a thousand times
    Hard as nails, the power to survive

    What is a man that stays true to the game
    But can't believe some of the things he sees
    Anger's a gift and I won't be kept down
    In poverty there is no democracy
    Used needle and a crack vile
    A broken bottle and a bullet shell
    This urban life is so volatile
    An inner city or a concrete hell

    Pre-chorus

    Chorus

    What is a man don't stay true to the game
    Don't care for no one, only cares for his greed
    He's playin' God killin' thousands of people
    'Cause the power is the fix that he needs
    Racist goal of the white devil
    I watched souls burnin' over oil
    A politician got no feelin'
    It makes my motherfuckin' cold blood boil

    Pre-chorus

    Chorus
