Speculate to break the one you hate
Specula per rompere quello che odi
Circulate the lie you confiscate
Circola la bugia che confischi
Assassinate and mutilate
Assassina e mutila
As the hounding media in hysteria
Come i media assillanti in isteria
Who's the next for you to resurrect
Chi sarà il prossimo che risusciterai
JFK exposed the CIA
