Sugarcoating

It was a clear blue day in September
 In the year two thousand and one
 Everybody seems to remember
 Very few know how it was done
 Jet planes flying into buildings
 Nobody getting in their way
 Tall twin towers made of concrete and steel
 Coming down like paper Mache
 And I wonder why
 Nobody wonders why
 With all this sweet, sweet, sweet sugarcoating
 The nightly news gone enter biz
 And the politicians out showboating
 One day somebody tell it like it is
 We went a huntin' for those old evil doers
 Down in old Afghanistan
 Then we lost the track and headed back to Iraq
 With our sights set on Iran
 Through the desert runs a money trail
 We kill and die for to defend
 Oh from the banks to the bankers to the tanks to the tankers
 It's a war that knows no end
 And no wonder why
 Very few wonder why
 With all this sweet, sweet, sweet sugarcoating
 The nightly news gone entertainment biz
 Oh big business out showboatin
 Won't somebody tell it like it is
 Oh who knows a truth
 And not afraid to tell it
 This song is for you
 Maybe if we talk we're just dead men walking
 But if we're silent we're living like slaves
 But if we follow where we lead and we're eaten what we're fed
 Then we might as well be sleeping in our grave
 Everybody out showboating
 Somebody wanna tell it like it is
 Oh somebody's gonna tell it like it is
 I believe somebody's gonna tell it like it is
