about

Released in December 1989 on Red Sun Records, "Admit One" was well received in the US and across Europe, and 25 years later, the eight original songs remain uncannily relevant.

lyrics

High and mighty on their thrones
We get tricked by their deception
Fearful of the common word
They lie to counter oppression
 
Promises made
Promise betrayed
We keep them under suspicion
Interrogate the hypocrites
Subject them to crucifixion
 
Cast the foundations
Break the mold
Building blocks crash to the ground
Weave their web of hope and faith
Swallow their pride
Let the people down
 
Tell us right when they mean wrong
Adding to our confusion
Going past where they lead on
Seeing through the illusion
 
Break the rules
Lies the lies
Signing a new constitution
Keep the people in the dark
Countdown to revolution
 
Silent citizens hold their stand
Faithful to their reaction
Guilty parties are dealt their hand
Leading to extradition
 
Players in a game of money
Of power and exhibition
The wicked walk on every side
Shining light on our superstition
