Verse 1
The speaker on the podium is sweating through his tie
He swears the sky is falling but he never tells you why
Twist the words around until they fit a better shape
Folks line up for answers
They get a paper cape
Pre-Chorus
Tell me twice and I might buy it
Say it loud and I'll deny it
Every rumor gets a crown
Chorus
Proclamation
Persuasion
Sell me something I already own
Proclamation
Persuasion
Limp along and call it a throne
Post-Chorus
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na
Hey hey
Verse 2
The mayor shakes a hand that he has never met before
Promises a highway and a brand new grocery store
Stiff as stone the system sits and grinds its crooked teeth
We hand over our questions
They hand back a belief
Pre-Chorus
Tell me twice and I might buy it
Say it loud and I'll deny it
Every rumor gets a crown
Chorus
Proclamation
Persuasion
Sell me something I already own
Proclamation
Persuasion
Limp along and call it a throne
Post-Chorus
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na
Hey hey
Bridge
Maybe the noise is the point
Maybe the point is the noise
Maybe we drown in the sound
Maybe the sound is the choice
