about
The lyrics of this one are all too real to me. The Ministry of Truth, indeed.
lyrics
All the king’s nobility enact their wicked ploys · Deals dealt in the darkness, backstabbed with practiced poise · Mortgaging the kingdom a trillion at a time · Pennies for the commoners while on our flesh they dine · And the pendulum swings to greater extremes · While we toil beneath the heavy thumb of the king · Craving that heady rush of liberty · A holiday from the tyranny and strife · Burning for a joyful dance with freedom · That breaks the heavy bonds to live our life · A city long deceived by the town Cryer’s lies · Peddling dissension and conniving to divide · A blade’s-edge twisting of the truth to sever sacred ties · Useless fear is selling out while the deluded haste to buy · Deception or reality, tell me which you prefer? · As the Ministry of Truth spins out tales of the absurd
