Political
[Verse 1]
Keep it down
Or shut your mouth
Look both ways
Before you make a sound
Common sense is too expensive
Gotta air it out underground
[Pre-Chorus]
(Speak the truth)
You maybe shouldn't
(Break the news)
Aww, keep pussyfootin' around
Don't allude, it's subterfuge
You want the message approved?
It must include
[Chorus]
One love
One state
One vow
One fate
You can only know
If we have told you so
Political
Political
Political
Political
Political
Political
Everything you know
Everything you know
Political
[Verse 2]
It's nothing new
It's just a noose
We'll take the tail
Your neck gets the loop
You can't afford to fight a tug-o-war
You'll fall in line when we start to move
[Pre-Chorus]
(Find your place)
There's no evadin'
(Keep the pace)
Ooh, you'll love obeyin’
It's not for us, it's all for you
Enjoy your cell with a view
Lookin' straight into
[Chorus]
One love
One state
One vow
One fate
You can only know
If we have told you so
Political
Political
Political
Political
Political
Political
Everything you know
Everything you know
Political
[Post-Chorus]
Outdated specters
From the past
Fodder for jesters
Coercing laughs
But no one's laughing
They're just bitterly clapping
So we'll say it again
And bask in the devil's amen
[Bridge]
It's all for you
It's all for you
Let me sing it again
It's all for you
It's all for you
Let me sing it again
[Chorus]
One love (political)
One state (political)
One vow (political)
One fate (political)
We give (political)
You take
Everything you know
Everything you know
Political
Shut down (political)
The gates (political)
There's no (political)
Escape (political)
You can only go
If we have told you so
[Outro]

Everywhere you go
Everywhere you go
Political

Political
Political
Political
Political
Everywhere you go
Everywhere you go
