Saying It Don't Make It So

You can tell me anything you want
But saying it don't make it so
Tell your broker you're not overdrawn
But saying it don't make it so
You can tell me that you're reasonable
But saying it don't make it so
Make a statement I am treasonable
But saying it don't make it so
In the early years of green
I let you lead me by the nose
But now you see, now I have seen
All the emperors have no clothes
You can tell me that we all are free
But saying it don't make it so
Tell the world this is democracy
But saying it don't make it so
In our gullibility
We didn't question you before
Enough of this docility!
We just won't take any more
You can tell us that we have a voice
But saying it don't make it so
Tell us how to exercise our choice
But saying it don't make it so
I hear you spelling out
What's bad - and what should be praised
But I remember what you said before
Did you think I'd been erased?
You tell us opposition is a sin
But saying it don't make it so
Tell us that you're always gonna, gonna win
But saying it don't make it so
You want that all the information lies with you
But saying it don't make it so
We want more than lies - we want the knowledge too
And saying it won't make it so
You say that we will always be the last to know
But saying it don't make it so
No, saying it don't make it so
