Music Video: "Ministry: Lieslieslies"

With the turmoil of our western democratic system, industrial metal legends "Ministry" have come forth with a smack in the face of George W with their politically charged (and appropriately titled ) "Lieslieslies" track, from the 2006 release "Rio Grande Blood".

This is their second most current release and some of their most political work to date. Their latest on the other hand, "The Last Sucker", continues this deeply political vibe, with an even more pissed off sound! It is said to be Ministry's last album of original material by founding member Al Jourgensen, sighting that 20 + years the band has run its course. I digress a little. Just enjoy the track and feel the anger.

*Extra: Lyrics added below clip. Words of beauty arn't they!

(Stay tuned for a full review of the album coming soon!).

Lies Lies Lies

"Gentlemen we have called you together to inform you that we are going to overthrow the United States government
Do you still think that jet fuel brought down the World Trade Center?
[Laughter]
Does anybody else see a problem here?
If the government has nothing to hide why are they so afraid to answer a few questions?
This story does not add up

[Verse 1]
I'm on a mission to never forget
3,000 people that I've never met
We want some answers and all that we get
Some kind of shit about a terrorist threat
Lies Lies Lies Lies Lies Lies Lies [x3]
Surprise surprise

Lies Lies

[Verse 2]
I'm on a mission to dig up the truth
You think we're stupid and there's no proof
Well let me tell you that the time has come
To pull the trigger on the smoking gun
Lies Lies Lies Lies Lies Lies Lies [x3]
Surprise surprise

Lies Lies Lies Lies

[Chorus]
Don't listen to me listen to your head
Don't listen
Don't listen to anything, they've said
Don't listen

Lies Lies Lies Lies

America has been hijacked
Not by Al Qaeda, not by Bin Laden
But by a group of tyrants
That should be of great concern to all Americans

[Verse 3]
I'm on a mission to bring out the facts
You got your stories but they all have cracks
Misinformation, lies and deceit
What made you think that we were all asleep
Lies Lies Lies Lies Lies Lies Lies [x3]
Surprise surprise

Lies Lies Lies Lies

[Chorus]
Don't listen to me listen to your head
Don't listen
Don't listen to anything, they've said
Don't listen

Lies Lies Lies Lies

[Outro Chorus:]
Don't listen to me listen to your head
Lies Lies Lies Lies"
