LEADSUCKER LYRICS

"Blowback"

Out of the ashes of a CIA-funded resistance,
al Qaeda is formed.
Our government supported them, stuck their nose where it didn't belong,
Then hung them out to dry.
Now the hunters have become the hunted.
They ignored the clues in plain sight,
Treated them like Popsicle-stick jokes.
Now the joke's on us,
And we are not the ones laughing.
Government plays the pity card; the role of innocent victim
To cover for their embarrassment, their lack of intelligence.
But they're the schoolyard bully, and we the citizens are guilty by association.
Always quick to interfere in other country's problems,
All the while ignoring their own growing list.
They created a monster that will never die, gave it a face and a name,
But they also created a hatred that could not be contained by one man.
Now that he's dead, how will they continue to justify the "War on Terror"?
And how will they spin it so all the idiots buy it?
Easy. Proof is overrated. Bury it in enough spectacle and we'll buy anything.
