Music of a southern day and the nectar of brass   Spilling into congo square where the queens used to pass   There lies no greater place for one left to drift   And there hides no greater lie and no bigger myth      And in the heat of crackdown all is silent   Just before the match is struck and the gas is poured along roads   But in the heat of crackdown all is silent underneath      Gunned down in the drive a foreign exchange   Student from japan whose fate it was shortchanged   You saw it all when it made the national news   How the isolated incident occured in baton rouge      And in the heat of crackdown all is silent   Just before the match is struck and the gas is poured along roads   But in the heat of crackdown all is silent underneath   And it's a crackdown on beliefs      Everyone watching   The events from the sky   No bodies touching   Don't wish to prize   Into our own lives   Into our own      Terrorism terrify tear the truth in two   Seeks to paralyze weaken turn the screws   But only cowards could create the ok bomb   'cause no bomb is ok when there can be no calm      And in the heat of crackdown all is silent   While the voice of power over roars condemns the songs of   Innocence and finally it's a crackdown on beliefs   Oh it's a crackdown on beliefs   And it's a crackdown on beliefs      Oh oh oh      And this is a crackdown on beliefs (na na na na)   Will you have a crackdown on beliefs (na na na na)   This a crackdown on beliefs   This is a crackdown   This is a crackdown   This is a crackdown   This is a crackdown
