Ministry Of Fools Lyrics
Your talking on the TV every single day
Making stupid gestures nothing much to say
Deny responsibility find someone to blame
When it comes right down to it
You're all the fucking same
We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening, don't tell me what to do
We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening to the ministry of fools
We listen to your promises they're just a pack of lies
Maneuvering your followers to draw the battle lines
You don't admit to anything you think you'll never fall
But come the revolution you'll be first against the wall
We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening, don't tell me what to do
We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening to the ministry of fools
Your talking on the TV every single day
Making stupid gestures nothing much to say
We listen to your promises they're just a pack of lies
Maneuvering your followers you draw your battle lines
We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening, don't tell me what to do
We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening to the ministry of fools
We're not listening to the ministry of fools
We're not listening (we're not listening)
We're not listening to the ministry of fools
We're not listening to the ministry
We're not listening
We're not listening, ministry of fools
We're not listening to the ministry of fools
Making stupid gestures nothing much to say
Deny responsibility find someone to blame
When it comes right down to it
You're all the fucking same
We're not listening, don't tell me what to do
We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening to the ministry of fools
Maneuvering your followers to draw the battle lines
You don't admit to anything you think you'll never fall
But come the revolution you'll be first against the wall
We're not listening, don't tell me what to do
We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening to the ministry of fools
Making stupid gestures nothing much to say
We listen to your promises they're just a pack of lies
Maneuvering your followers you draw your battle lines
We're not listening, don't tell me what to do
We're not listening, listening to you
We're not listening to the ministry of fools
We're not listening (we're not listening)
We're not listening to the ministry of fools
We're not listening to the ministry
We're not listening
We're not listening, ministry of fools
We're not listening to the ministry of fools

This song carries a strong message of defiance and skepticism towards those in power, highlighting people's frustration with politicians and leaders who are seen as deceitful, manipulative, and irresponsible. The name of the 'Ministry of Fools' references the real branches of government by denouncing them as a branch that gives out fake news and misleading propaganda to trick or sway public opinion. But the masses are not as ignorant as they believe their nation to be, and in telling them that they will not listen to their words anymore, reflects a sense of resistance and refusal to be swayed by empty promises and misleading actions of authority figures.
Overall, this one can be seen as a rallying cry for individuals to think critically, question authority, and resist the influence of those who prioritize self-interest over the well-being of the public.
