THE LOUDER YOU SHOUT 
 0:00
(Verse 1) 
 0:02
They say it’s the most important year, 
 0:02
Same old promise, same old cheer. 
 0:10
Different faces, same damn spin, 
 0:13
They don’t care who loses, long as they win. 
 0:15
The louder you shout, the more you’re right, 
 0:18
Facts don’t matter when you own the mic. 
 0:21
Raise your voice, fake that fight, 
 0:23
Truth gets buried in the TV light. 
 0:26
(Chorus) 
 0:28
Oh, they sell us dreams in red, white, and blue, 
 0:28
Wrap up lies like they’re something new. 
 0:34
Say “hope,” say “change,” say “we care for you,” 
 0:39
But it’s just the same game we’ve been running through. 
 0:45
The louder you shout, the more you’re right, 
 0:50
Spin it, grin it, all day and night. 
 0:55
Yeah, the louder you shout, the more you’re right— 
 0:58
We just clap along to the soundbite. 
 1:03
(Verse 2) 
 1:09
They promise reform, they promise to heal, 
 1:09
Then sign the deal behind the wheel. 
 1:12
They’ll fix the system — someday soon, 
 1:15
Just after they lunch with the tycoon. 
 1:17
They blame each other, trade the sin, 
 1:20
Point the finger, cash it in. 
 1:23
Every saint’s got dirt to hide, 
 1:26
Every slogan’s just a bribe in disguise. 
 1:28
(Chorus) 
 1:31
Oh, they sell us dreams in red, white, and blue, 
 1:31
Wrap up lies like they’re something new. 
 1:36
Say “hope,” say “change,” say “we care for you,” 
 1:42
But it’s just the same game we’ve been running through. 
 1:47
The louder you shout, the more you’re right, 
 1:52
Spin it, grin it, all day and night. 
 1:57
Yeah, the louder you shout, the more you’re right— 
 2:00
We just clap along to the soundbite. 
 2:06
(Bridge – spoken like a rally) 
 2:13
Government of the people? — sure, on paper. 
 2:13
Freedom for all? — depends on the waiver. 
 2:16
They quote Lincoln, FDR, Kennedy, too, 
 2:18
But they all played the game — just like they do. 
 2:20
Reagan’s “freedom,” Clinton’s “pain,” 
 2:24
Obama’s “hope,” Trump’s “drain the swamp” train. 
 2:26
Now Biden’s “better” — well, that’s nice, 
 2:29
But we’ve seen this show once or twice. 
 2:31
(Verse 3) 
 2:34
Invent an enemy, sell the fear, 
 2:34
Divide the crowd, then shed a tear. 
 2:37
“Unity” means “you agree with me,” 
 2:40
That’s democracy — apparently. 
 2:42
They kiss the babies, bless the flag, 
 2:45
Shake the hands, then cut the bag. 
 2:47
They promise gold, deliver tin, 
 2:50
And smile wide when the cameras spin. 
 2:53
(Final Chorus) 
 2:55
Oh, they sell us dreams in red, white, and blue, 
 2:55
Wrap up lies like they’re something new. 
 3:00
Say “hope,” say “change,” say “we care for you,” 
 3:06
But it’s just the same game we’ve been running through. 
 3:11
The louder you shout, the more you’re right, 
 3:17
Facts don’t matter when you own the mic. 
 3:21
Yeah, the louder you shout, the more you’re right— 
 3:24
And the rest of us fade into the night.They only care to win, 
 3:28
Year after year, same story, same spin. 
 3:34
The louder they shout, the more they’re right... 
 3:37
And we just keep tuning in. 
 3:40
