Lyrics

We all know just what you knew
Before, during and after
The head of the CIA - he told us so
The story changed - got re-arranged
But nobody knows by whom (the question is)
Who's in command at the Situation Room?

Is it a cover up?
No one's perfect - we all make mistakes
But if it's a cover up
That's somethin' we just can't forgive
Either it's a cover up
Or someone's been asleep at the wheel
To err is human, but we
Just can't forgive

A cover up - a cover up

Your U.N. girl, then you at the U.N
Kept the story goin'
Even though you knew the real truth
A video-induced spontaneous mob it was not
How could you not know you'd be in this spot?

It's feelin' like a cover up
No one's perfect - we all make mistakes
But if it's a cover up
That's somethin' we just can't forgive
Maybe it's a cover up
'Cause it didn't fit your narrative
To err is human, but we
Just can't forgive

A cover up - a cover up - a cover up

As commander-in-chief
You stole truth like a thief
With the talking points you made a slight correction
Four Americans lost
But you refused to let it cost you
Your precious presidential re-election
More and more it's lookin' like

It's lookin' more and more like a cover up
No one's perfect - we all make mistakes
But if it's a cover up
That's somethin' we just can't forgive
Either it's a cover up
Or what was that that Susan Rice was smokin'
To err is human, but we
Just can't forgive

A cover up -a cover up
A cover up -a cover up - a cover up
