The French Connection - Black Truth White Lies

"Shut up now" , "Stop talking about that..."
"Don't search to comprehend !"
Familiars words for you too uh ?
We've all heard (at least) one time
(That's) Not a scoop I know
"It's fine" ...
"And after all it doesn't matter ..."
I should have bet you told me that

(You) keep on read the papers,
Believe on speech, trust what is wrote
"It's written black on white,
(I) also heard on radio !"
"Even TV speaks about it,
It can't be false , why do you doubt ?"
"How dare you think otherwise, you go
insane I am not mad"

You use to hear harmless fibs,
Repeat them since you're a child
Today it's like a second nature,
You don't even realize
Can you tell me how you feel
No you can't, you're too lost
Between what was said
(&) What you told
What remains there after all ?

Don't you sometimes sense the need
(to) stop playing endless pantomime ?
Stucked-Up in warp reality
Riding on stalking horse through time
Get off get off cowboy (You're) under arrest,
You became blind
Then you've put sand in their eyes,
Now they can see enough to fly .
