What Is Truth (Poetry with Music)
Lyrics:
What is Truth
He was building the world’s largest hot air balloon
The general was in a rush and hoping it’d be done soon
I already lost one brother to the machine
I watched the second one fall down in it
I made everything stop and felt split
But he was sitting safely and completely clean
One of these days we’ll have to find a new occupation
Since the general will realize it won’t fly in formation
They asked: truth? What exactly is it
It’s a hero and has the power to acquit
All you have to do is force liars to admit
The hypnotist's brain decayed out of his skull
The pregnant woman came and gave him an earful
Because the photographer invited her for a private shoot
The hypnotist with a power spell and snap
Broke her back and had her placed on the strap
That was tied around the waist of his jumpsuit
The boy’s going to be born a little wrong
And the consequences will remain lifelong
They asked: truth? What exactly is it
It’s a hero and has the power to acquit
All you have to do is force liars to admit
They were being forced to make a line
Through it the recruit snaked through the spine
Getting hit by a thousand types of tree limbs
Just to pay for the crime of rainforest theft
They were going to burn it anyway so he saved the heft
Of having to worry about anything done with the rims
But they tattooed hundreds of laws to him
So they could make a statue of him around the trim
They asked: truth? What exactly is it
It’s a hero and has the power to acquit
All you have to do is force liars to admit
The employee of the Roman government inspected
While the man bringing the end looked disaffected
He was acting pretty busy packing up his bowl
The Italian wanted to know the answers to the test
Even though being true or false he could’ve guessed
And he’d have a fifty percent chance of reaching his goal
His boss was on him about going to church and his grades
Because they were afraid how he’d look in a few decades
They asked: truth? What exactly is it
It’s a hero and has the power to acquit
All you have to do is force liars to admit
What is Truth
He was building the world’s largest hot air balloon
The general was in a rush and hoping it’d be done soon
I already lost one brother to the machine
I watched the second one fall down in it
I made everything stop and felt split
But he was sitting safely and completely clean
One of these days we’ll have to find a new occupation
Since the general will realize it won’t fly in formation
They asked: truth? What exactly is it
It’s a hero and has the power to acquit
All you have to do is force liars to admit
