Is it true
Given the right to think free
We would only hurt ourselves

The publics not too dumb
To know what it wants
But its judgment
Is based on governmental lies

Oh, governmental lies, for what?

The anti-governmental
Policy opposition laws
Can be found
On the Library of Congress's
Public protection shelf

Oh, public protection, for what

Well give me piece of mind
To know that I don't have to die
In the night for things that are not right
For plans, I never planned
For reasons I don't understand
I can't pretend to fully comprehend
The reasons why we must extend
Our freedom

Oh, our freedom, from what

But if people revolt in the streets
For things they need, who dies
The public's protection, or the public itself
