Trust the Experts [Politics song]

[Intro]
Verse 1
They said trust the experts, where the hell they at?
White coat, cold needle, said “Don’t question that”
Trust the science, sign the line, don’t ask why
Now they shrug their shoulders say science is all fine

You feel it in your chest, feel it in your veins
They say coincidence, say it’s all in your brain
If the truth walks in the room they turn off the lights
Then blame the dark for why you lost your sight

Pre-Chorus
If they don’t know nothin’, why they so sure?
If they so sure, why they lock the doors doors?

Chorus
Trust the experts, trust the experts they say
Same script every channel, different face
Reading off a screen, never looking your way
Trust the experts… where are the experts today?

Verse 2
Lost city in the desert, eye in the sand
Circles in the Earth no one understands
“Scientists are baffled,” that’s the favorite line
Funny how the truth always runs out of time
They say it’s nothing, say it’s random stone
But they’ll never say we don’t really know
Keep watching the news, keep nodding along
An anchorman smiling while he’s dead wrong

Pre-Chorus
If history threatens the story they sell
They bury it deep and ring the bell

Chorus
Trust the experts, trust the experts they say
Same lie polished up in a smarter way
Teleprompter prophets preaching night and day
Trust the experts… just don’t think, just obey

Verse 3
Butcher in a lab coat cutting deals for pay
Sick care system gotta keep it that way
Drowning in debt, sign your soul to the board
Step out of line, they’ll pull your rewards
They say follow the money, then pretend it ain’t true
Till you follow it once and it leads straight through
Elites on the hill, rest of us below
Pay more taxes, will the climate change? No

Bridge
They say trust the experts, all experts agree
Funny how agreement pays so evenly
If you ask real questions you’re a threat somehow
So they call you crazy just to shut you down

Final Chorus
Trust the experts, trust the experts they cry
While the same hands profit every time
They keep you afraid, they keep you sick
Call it science while they turn the trick
Trust the experts, trust the butcher in white
Keeping you broken so the system’s right
If truth ever speaks, it won’t be on TV
It’ll be whispered by the ones still free
Trust the experts… or trust your eyes
One of them’s been lying this whole damn time.
