Vers:
A man stands up before God and country
Raises his right hand and takes an oath
Swears he has acted in the line of duty
And he more than anyone wants to tell the truth
But there is a need to keep some things a secret
Some weapons shipments--some private wars
In the future democracy will be defended
Behind closed doors
Now the men of Congress who convene to determine
If covert war is a business or a crime
Are the same men who routinely give their
permission
For the shedding of blood in security's name
And there is a need to keep some things a secret
The names of some countries--the terms of some
deals
And above all the sound of the screams of the
innocent
Beneath our wheels
Does the word justice mean anything to you?
Are the features of a lie beginning to come
through?
In the streets of America the children are buried
Caught in an avalanche of weapons and drugs
They live and they die in the bowels of a business
That's disguised as a war between The Crips and
The Bloods
And there is a need to keep some things a secret
The C.I.A. deals protecting the source
And the government policies directly connecting
the drugs and our wars
Does the word justice mean anything to you?
As the battlefield comes home and democracy falls
through
I am waiting for the time to come
When the word will be real for everyone
And not just a word but a thing that can be done
But justice must be won
