Whispers
The government's words
Are like whispers in our ears
Telling us lies
To hide away our fears
Hikoi taku tai moana te take ō te wā
Tāhae whenua anō te kāwanatanga
Te pūkana ō tariana, te pū ō tame iti
He tāonga mō nga iwi māori nā te kupu ō te tiriti
The government's words
Are like whispers in our ears
Telling us lies
To hide away our fears
He tiriti nā amerika, john key te waha mōkai
Ehara I te koha, tppa he tūtae
He hui toropuku, he kōrero huna
Nga iwi māori awere, te tiriti takahia
The government's words
Are like whispers in our ears
Telling us lies
To hide away our fears
Hide away the truth, playing on our fears
The government's words are like whispers in our ears
The people will find out the truth about our nation
A greedy system that shuts down our voice with legislation
Are like whispers in our ears
Telling us lies
To hide away our fears
Hikoi taku tai moana te take ō te wā
Tāhae whenua anō te kāwanatanga
Te pūkana ō tariana, te pū ō tame iti
He tāonga mō nga iwi māori nā te kupu ō te tiriti
The government's words
Are like whispers in our ears
Telling us lies
To hide away our fears
He tiriti nā amerika, john key te waha mōkai
Ehara I te koha, tppa he tūtae
He hui toropuku, he kōrero huna
Nga iwi māori awere, te tiriti takahia
The government's words
Are like whispers in our ears
Telling us lies
To hide away our fears
Hide away the truth, playing on our fears
The government's words are like whispers in our ears
The people will find out the truth about our nation
A greedy system that shuts down our voice with legislation
