Lyrics

We Won’t Tell

We saw you do it, as clear as day.
Proved you are a dirtbag, nothing more to say...
Somehow, you think you’ve cast a great big spell...
But don’t believe for once that we won’t tell.

Chorus:
We’re getting so much closer to our vision...
The day you’ll go too far, end up in prison.
They should throw away the key...
A life sentence, maybe three...
This will dispel the fact that we won’t tell.

We’ve studied all your actions for a while.
Witnessed nonstop lies, so many failed trials.
Insisting you alone were the wronged,
We’re so damned tired of listening to your song.

Chorus:
We’re getting so much closer to our vision...
The day you’ll go too far, end up in prison.
They should throw away the key...
A life sentence, maybe three...
This will dispel the fact that we won’t tell.
They should throw away the key...
A life sentence, maybe three...
This will dispel the fact that we won’t tell.

Love your voice, your tasty picking and strumming. And sharp lyrics - great rhyming. And I'm with you!

Certainly made me think of several prominent people who should definitely be in prison. I was singing along.

Good write, and a good prompt response. Fun rhyming carries the listener along smoothly.

It might be a bit of a flick on an already sore spot for me!

Love this! Pure folk protest in the finest form. That chorus is catchy as hell, as I love the internal rhyme on "will dispel the fact that we won't tell." The "life sentence, maybe three" had me sighing longingly...

And doubly impressive for being a skirmish write!
