Often Enough

Oh I don't listen much to the radio these days
But when I do I usually tune in to Triple J
'Cos lurking somewhere over on the AM band
Those shock jocks are just getting totally out of hand
I get the fact that everyone wants to belong
I get the fact that everyone wants to believe in someone
I get the fact that familiarity breeds trust
And lies will stick if you say them often enough
If you say them often enough, blah da da da da da da
If you say them often enough, if you say them often
And just to keep your job, you claimed you were an entertainer
All you got was a slap on the wrist
With a wet lettuce by the regulator
I've been wracking my mind how things turned out this way
That fucked-up egomaniacs can pull such sway

Maybe there's something in us all that looks for easy answers
And some will find it in stupid little three word mantras
That poison breakfast with ignorance and huff and puff
And fear will stick if you say them often enough
If you say them often enough, blah da da da da da da
If you say them often enough, if you say them often

But how do I know what I think, until I've heard what I have to say?
If only we could learn to discuss things in a much healthier way
Where we're ok with being challenged about all of our stuff
I sure hope you still like my words
If you say, if you say, if you... if you... if you say!

If you say them often enough, blah da da da da da da
If you say them often enough, if you say them often
If you say them often enough, blah da da da da da da
If you say them often enough, if you say them often
