"Tightlipped" lyrics - THAT PETROL EMOTION

Gradually the lights have gone out
Steadily a fantasy unfurls
Purposely the seeds of doubt
Are being shown by a faceless world
Perpetrating verbiage
Gullible minds accept
This is blanket coverage
Blots out all that it rejects

Can you
See through
The silence and the boldface lies
Can you
See through
The silence and the boldface lies

Quietly swept under the mat
J. P. remains tightlipped
Everyone can turn their backs
Facts are being twisted and skipped

Can you
See through
The silence and the boldface lies
Can you
See through
The silence and the boldface lies

All will point condemning fingers
All will play the liberal card
But the stench of lies will linger
In your own backyard

Can you
See through
The silence and the boldface lies
Can you
See through
The silence and the boldface lies
