In this menagerie
Human activity
People are taking sides
As the country divides
Why bother with a truth
When a falsehood will do
And this is how it starts
People will take up arms
They're marching in the street
No option left but this
And so a nation mourns
As it collects it's thoughts
Meanwhile someone will say
Our win taken away
Why bother with a lie
When the truth is denied
And this is how it starts
People will take up arms
They're marching in the street
No option left but this
Militias in the woods
Death in the neighbourhoods
A nation ill at ease
Rioting on the street
You've heard of truth and lies
Too late they both have died
And this is how it starts
People will take up arms
They're marching in the street
No option left but this
