Lyrics
, the government's words, are like whispers in our ears, telling us lies, to hide away our fears, hikoi taku tai moana te take o te wa, tahae whenua ano te kawanatanga, te pukana o tariana, te pu o tame iti, he taonga mo nga iwi maori na te kupu o te tiriti, the government's words, are like whispers in our ears, telling us lies, to hide away our fears, he tiriti na amerika, john key te waha mokai, ehara i te koha, tppa he tutae, he hui toropuku, he korero huna, nga iwi maori awere, te tiriti takahia, the government's words, are like whispers in our ears, telling us lies, to hide away our fears, hide away the truth, playing on our fears, the government's words are like whispers in our ears, the people will find out the truth about our nation, a greedy system that shuts down our voice with legislation, the government's words, are like whispers in our ears, telling us lies, to hide away our fears, the foreshore and seabed march the issue of the day, another theft of land by the government, the defiance of tariana, the shotgun of tame iti, these treasures belong to maori, according to the treaty, the government's words, are like whispers in our ears, telling us lies, to hide away our fears, the agreement from america, john key the puppet mouthpiece, this is no gift, the tppa is a turd, secret meetings, hidden words, maori interests excluded, the treaty disregarded, the government's words, are like whispers in our ears, telling us lies, to hide away our fears, hide away the truth, playing on our fears, the government's words are like whispers in our ears, the people will find out the truth about our nation, a greedy system that shuts down our voice with legislation
