With Friends Like These (Who The Fuck Needs Cointelpro)?

(앨범: Today's Empires, Tomorrow's Ashes - 2001)

With friends like these,
Who the fuck needs cointelpro?
I'm punch-drunk on the sickening cadence of
Iron-fists in velvet gloves.
The Cheshire grins.
The crippling Judas kiss
To christen thee
A sinking ship

The purpose of this new counter-intelligence endeavor
Is to expose, disrupt, misdirect, discredit or other
Wise neutralized

Any parades that you can't jump in front of.
Any long years of hard work that ain't yours.

Sometimes I wonder if you just can't help yourself?

Overhead bloodthirsty vultures circle patiently.
They offer condolences and whisper bitter eulogies.
Yes, "comrades" come as thick as thieves.
But you got another thing coming.
You got another thing coming.
You got another thing coming.
You got another thing

With friends like these,
Who the fuck needs cointelpro?
