Lyrics

Man Behind the Curtain
Elections don’t’ mean nothing when they’re all on the same side
Illusion of a change to keep the peasants satisfied
Nothings gonna’ change like gravity it’s certain
Not until we hang the man behind the curtain
Johnny’s marching off to war to save his uncle’s neck
He survived two bloody tours, came home got taxed to death
Nothings gonna’ change like gravity it’s certain
Not until we hang the man behind the curtain
We can’t go on living with our backs against the wall
Do you hear the rifle cracking, do you hear the buglers call
As you’re loading up your cannons man, I’m taking up my aim
I want you in my crosshairs but I don’t know where to aim
Everybody’s grasping straws instead of grasping facts
We got each other by the throat, is there any turning back
Nothings gonna’ change like gravity it’s certain
Not until we hang the man behind the curtain
Drawing up dividing lines, pretending they are rules
If you think your side is right, man have you been fooled
Nothings gonna’ change like gravity it’s certain
Not until we hang the man behind the curtain
Hang him high
