Independent, are you sure?
Please don’t be a bore
We’ve been lied to before
We’re not listening anymore
After you’ve sealed our fate
Now you want to investigate
But it’s too little too late
For us to bite your bait

You want us to believe
Nothing’s up your sleeve
Do you think we’re naïve
Or that easy to deceive
Don’t answer the question
You’ve made your impression
Taught us quite a lesson
We’ve seen your digression

The guilty parties will pay
At least that’s what you say
While the water was still gray
You told us it was okay
Now you want to rectify
Facts you used to deny
And you really wonder why
We find it hard to buy

Now if you’re quick witted
The guilty won’t be acquitted
And the punishment will be fitted
To the crimes they’ve committed
Cuz we still can’t take a bath
And we’re frightened by the math
Someone’s got to feel our wrath
Because we’re on the war path
