Riddles

Lyrics

[Intro] Woah Woah Woah Woah [Verse 1] Talkin' heads are talkin' But listen to what they say How they sit in judgement (Hush) And claim to know the way [Verse 2] If dreams can be dismembered And our worth be ignored Need a new direction (Woah) 'Cause this one we can't afford (Woah) [Pre-Chorus] There's bad stuff happening And no one does a thing [Chorus] What can I do What can I say When they just speak at us in riddles? How can this be Why can't ya see That they just speak at us in riddles? [Post-Chorus] Woah Woah Woah Woah [Verse 3] Got ourselves in trouble With no relief in sight Everyday is such a struggle Cause they had to pick a fight [Pre-Chorus] How can this be happening? (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Can't we do anything? [Chorus] The peace is the war The rich are too poor And they just speak at us in riddles How can this be Why can't ya see That they just speak at us in riddles? We're stuck right in the middle [Bridge] Clear skies baby Healthy forests No Child Left Behind Wake up, people [Verse 4] Big Brother is watchin' you They're takin' all your rights away Don't claim that you represent me 'Cause I don't believe a word that ya say Yeah [Chorus] What can I do What can I say When they just speak at us in riddles? How can this be Why can't ya see That they just speak at us in riddles? Let's see through the riddles Yeah [Post-Chorus] Woah Woah Woah (As we know, there are known knowns) There are things we know we know Woah (We also know there are known unknowns) That is to say, we know there's some things we do not know Woah (There are also unknown unknowns) The ones we don't know we don't know Woah (And if one looks through the history of our country and other free countries) Woah (It is the later category that tend to be the difficult ones) Woah There's an old saying in Tennessee I know it's in Texas, probably, Tennessee That says "Fool me once, shame on, shame on you Fool me, can't get fooled again"
