chuck brodsky - dangerous times كلمات الأغنية

there’s terror in our midst
they could be one of us
behind you in the line
beside you on the bus
wearing camouflage
they might be wearing suits
the terrorists among us
might be wearing army boots

these are dangerous times
people are afraid
no looking back at history
to see how enemies were made
some dictators are bad
some dictators are good
that’s a hard one to explain
but i wish somebody would

so let us all agree
let us not dissent
let us not ask questions such as
where our freedoms went
we’ll just fly fly the flag
sing g-d bless america
question people’s patriotism
who don’t join in the hysteria

these are dangerous times
and so we lose our rights
while these terrorists among us
do their dirty work at night
there isn’t time to read
the contents of the bills
that congress votes for anyway
up there on the hill

there’s terror in our midst
it wears the good disguise
fools a lot of people
they seem like such regular guys
rewriting all the rules
you don’t have any say
in fact they even count on you
to look the other way

there’s terror in our midst
all over the tv
it’s what’s behind the words
that scares the daylights out of me
the twisting of the facts
the stretching of the truth
the terrorists among us
they manipulate the news

so let us all agree
let us not dissent
let us not ask questions such as
where our freedoms went
we’re going to build them schools
we’re going to build them banks
we’re going to build them pipelines
from their fields to our tanks

my heart goes out to johnny
sent off into war
they convince him it’s for freedom
that he’d lay his life down for
my thoughts are often with him
i pray he comes home safe
and i pray for every innocent
laid early in the grave

these are dangerous times
you might be overheard
using one of whatever they’ve defined
as being a dangerous word
what if they don’t like your songs?
what if they don’t like your books?
what if you fit a profile
based solely on your looks?

they listen to us talk
they read the things we write
they watch us all on cameras
they know where you were last night
they know where you stopped for gas
which magazines you bought
back in 1984
this was all just crazy talk

so let us all agree
let us not dissent
let us not ask questions such as
where our freedoms went
let’s have a look inside those pockets
let’s have a look inside that purse
let’s have a look inside that glove box
or someplace maybe worse

and who was in your house
while you weren’t home
and looked in your computer
and through everything you own?
what did they want to know?
which websites do you visit?
what have you learned about them?
they want to know – what is it?
