niroda abboud - I spy

I spy with my little eye
One world, one lie
I spy, with my little eye
A world about to die

A sigh of relief from God
Tired of watching these menacing lots
writing the rules, then changing the rules
writing the rules then changing the rules

do they think we are fools?

I think we are fools.


What happened to the heroes
or were they ever there
where are all the knights
or are they all too scared

Superman where are you
come and save the day
the world is about to die
the American way

But do we really care
do we really dare
to look hard,
not blankly stare

and spy with our little eyes,
a world built on lies
and spy with with our little eyes
a lie about to die!
