VERSE
"The Master's house can't be dismantled
By using the Master's tools"
That's an anarchic fallacy
That's an anarchic fallacy
And will never set us free
If I get to say what you can say, democracy will end that way
Think reason and rationality
Instead of violent condemnation
Engage... in conversation
VERSE
We must not co-operate with tyranny
By claiming mass conspiracy
Speaking truth in the face of danger
Parrhesia will keep us free
Your way, uses the words I say, to take away my liberty
Freedom is a hard-won thing
Instead of aggressive condemnation
Engage... in conversation
VERSE
Only the Master's tools can dismantle
Forever the Master's house
Freedom of speech must be defended
Even if we don't like what we hear
Freedom of speech must be defended
Even if we don't like what we hear
If I get to say what you can say, democracy will end that way
Think reason and rationality
Instead of outward condemnation
Engage... in conversation
Think reason and rationality
Instead of outward condemnation
Engage... in conversation
