Free Speech Lyrics & Chords By Citizen Fish

In a culture where the natural is dressed to fit the part
We've powdered milk and cartoon cows
Sky is on the box the parks are where we fit the cars
And obesity is sold by clowns
When every time religion comes we grab the shopping cart
And curse the price of charity
The only time we pray for help its for a credit card
That stretches to eternity
It's what we think we ought to do
It's not exactly ours to choose
Cos people do the things they do
It's how it goes and who are you to moan?
I said it seems to me that most of this dependency
On progress God and how it's been
Just causes stress and misery
Let's have some mental liberation
Until we do then no one's really free
As the world goes up itself about celebrity and wealth
There's war and raw hypocrisy
And still no freedom for the free
To get together all day long
And tell the fuckers this is wrong!
The nanny state does not forgive your sins
And they know where you live
Let's have some mental liberation
Until we do then no one's really
Free speech - illusion
Reach the conclusion
Those who set the limits on freedom
Won't let you say we don't need them
For fear of losing freedom do we keep it all inside?
Being quiet in the name of peace
The courts are full of people with opinions to defend
But it doesn't get the press release
If every step is marching to the bus to take us back
To hear that nothing changed again
Remember all the facts before the media attack
The pictures in your heart and pictures in your brain
Cos I was there and so were you
And several thousand others too
While opinions of millions were shaped by papers and the news
And you were there and so were we
So who has the authority
To shape perception to the point of calling it reality?
Let's have some mental liberation
Until we do then no one's really free
Let's have some mental liberation
Until we do then no one's really free
