Say One Thing, DO Another! (original song by SJones)

Punk rock anthem about how companies and people can be so hypocritical. 

[Intro] 

One, two, three, four! 

[Verse 1] 

You print a promise on a billboard wall Then cut the ladder when the workers call Shake every hand for the camera flash While counting the coins from the broken glass You preach compassion in a polished speech Then lock the door when the hungry reach A spotless slogan, a filthy deal Tell us what to think, then hide what’s real 

[Pre-Chorus] 

We see the fingerprints under the paint We hear the truth in the words you ain’t 

[Chorus] 

Say one thing, do another! Sell us out and call us brother! Hands up high, let the whole world know: We’re not buying what you show! Say one thing, do another! No more kings behind the cover! Hey! Hey! We won’t play along! Hey! Hey! We’re done being wronged! 

[Verse 2] 

You claim the planet is your sacred cause Then pour the poison through a legal clause You praise the team when the scoreboard shines Then blame the rookies for your crooked lines You tell us honesty is how we win While changing rules when you’re boxed in A thousand smiles and a practiced face Same old hunger in a newer case 

[Pre-Chorus] 

We see the fingerprints under the paint We hear the truth in the words you ain’t 

[Chorus] 

Say one thing, do another! Sell us out and call us brother! Hands up high, let the whole world know: We’re not buying what you show! Say one thing, do another! No more kings behind the cover! Hey! Hey! We won’t play along! Hey! Hey! We’re done being wronged! 

[Bridge] 

No more polished alibis! No more staged apologies! You can dress it up in gold, But we know what you sold! 

[Breakdown]

Who makes the rules? Not us! Who gets the loot? Not us! Who takes the blame? Not us! Enough is enough! 

[Final Chorus] 

Say one thing, do another! Sell us out and call us brother! Hands up high, let the whole world know: We’re not buying what you show! Say one thing, do another! No more kings behind the cover! Hey! Hey! We won’t play along! Hey! Hey! We’re done being wronged! Say one thing, do another! Hear the roar from every corner! Hey! Hey! Let the false words fall! Hey! Hey! We’re louder than them all! 

[Outro] 

One thing! Do another! One thing! Do another! Enough is enough!
