Falling Down
Falling Down: A Protest Anthem Against Censorship and Injustice
Lyrics
What's this shit goin' down 'bout the fcc
Expressing concern about FCC actions
gone to war against obscenity
FCC engaging in a war against obscenity
well, in times like these
Commenting on the current state of affairs
you better watch what you say
Cautioning to be mindful of speech
watch 'em take your fucking rights away
Warning about potential loss of rights
darlin' i've been falling down
Personal admission of a downturn
darlin' we've been and i'm falling down
Shared experience of falling down
don't you want to know. oh oh oh
Expressing curiosity about the truth
just a shame, just a drag, just the usa
Describing the situation as a shame and a drag in the USA
more concerned about the things we say
Highlighting societal priorities on speech
and the lies they tell.
Reference to deception in communication
i'll tell you that's what's unjust
Belief that injustice lies in deception
what the fuck they've been telling us
Questioning the information provided to the public
darlin' i've been falling down
Personal acknowledgment of a decline
darlin' we've been fallin' down
Shared experience of falling down
don't you take it away
Plea to preserve a certain state
don't you want to know. oh oh oh
Expressing a desire for knowledge
and it's a long way down
Highlighting a significant descent
and it's a long way down.
Reiteration of a substantial fall
here come the witch hunt, black listin' fcc
Warning about a witch hunt and FCC actions
callin' out the fucking cavalry
Referring to a call for support
when they come for you, why don't you come to me
Suggesting seeking help during difficult times
as you sit through this insanity
Observation of the chaotic situation
darlin' i've been fallin' down
Personal admission of a decline
darlin' we've been fallin' down
Shared experience of falling down
don't you take it away
Plea to preserve a certain state
don't you take it away
Repetition of the plea
don't you want to know. oh oh oh
Expressing a desire for knowledge
