..If we could just talk about a few of the songs on the album, starting with 'The Night Of 1000 Lies'. What's the idea behind this song and does it relate to a specific night? There's a line the states, "Find it difficult to follow the truth? That follows the years of abuse." What abuse are you refering to and who received it?
..Vic) 'Night Of 1000 Lies' is funny, because I wanted to update the old Wilson Pickett song 'Land Of 1000 Dances.' I thought that in our age, no one gets to lay out and shake it purely for fun like they did in the 1960s. What we have today is mendacity and hypocrisy. So if you’re going to dance, it has to be around all the lies the official culture spins. It’s not really about any single night or person. The abuse line is really about Bush, and by abuse, I meant the way he abuses us.

lyrics

Searching around for someone else to blame?
Surprised that no one can feel your pain?
So hard to lead when no one follows behind
but you make it a policy to tell all those lies

The Night of 1000 Lies

Find it difficult to swallow the truth?
-- That follows those years of abuse
Cutting the facts to fit your demands
Don't be surprised if they're short in the end

The Night of 1000 Lies

You've only started
With that half-hearted
rhetoric from yesteryear
Ideology crystal clear
Narrowed down to a brittle point
Nothing different and nothing disjoint
The equilibrium of the grave
but your thinking ends up that way

Wonder why no one's backing your play?
-- You've fucked everyone in your way
Narrow the circle to the thoroughly spun
You've built a consensus of one.

The Night of 1000 Lies
