When The Lie's So Big (Live At Nassau Coliseum, Uniondale, NY 3/25/88) Frank Zappa

[00:11.50] They got lies so big
[00:14.32] They don't make a noise
[00:17.79] They tell 'em so well
[00:22.64] Like a secret disease
[00:27.68] That makes you go numb
[00:31.65] With a big ol' lie
[00:33.14] And a flag and a pie
[00:34.87] And a mom and a bible
[00:36.58] Most folks are just liable
[00:38.25] To buy any line
[00:41.17] Any place, any time
[00:46.17] When the lie's so big
[00:49.35] As in Robertson's case
[00:52.57] That sinister face
[00:57.02] Behind all the Jesus, hurrah
[01:02.60] Could result in the end
[01:05.73] To a worrisome trend
[01:09.26] In which every American
[01:11.95] Not "born again"
[01:16.19] Could be punished in cruel and unusual ways
[01:22.44] By this treacherous cretin
[01:24.63] Who tells everyone
[01:26.15] That he's Jesus' best friend
[01:31.11] When the lie's get so big
[01:34.58] And the fog gets so thick
[01:37.48] And the facts disappear
[01:41.13] The Republican Trick
[01:45.04] Can be played out again
[01:48.33] People, please tell me when
[01:51.32] We'll be rid of these men!
[01:59.19] Just who do they really
[02:00.42] Suppose that they are?
[02:05.34] And how did they manage to travel as far
[02:11.38] As they seem to have come?
[02:15.16] Were we really that dumb?
[02:23.32] People, wake up
[02:26.22] Figure it out
[02:29.49] Religious fanatics
[02:32.59] Around and about
[02:35.90] The Court House, The State House
[02:39.13] The Congress, The White House
[02:42.67] Criminal saints
[02:45.36] With a 'Heavenly Mission'
[02:48.10] A nation enraptured
[02:51.92] By pure superstition
[03:08.99] When the lie's so big
[03:11.99] And the fog gets so thick
[03:15.07] And the facts get forgotten
[03:20.24] The Republican Trick
[03:24.94] Can be played out again
[03:28.25] People, please tell me when
[03:30.87] We'll be rid of these men!
