Shh quiet, you might piss somebody off
Like me motherfucker, you've been at it for too long While you feed off others insecurities You stand in front of me and bite the hand that feeds (Self-righteousness is wearing thin) Lies inside your head your best friend (Heart bleeds but not for fellow man) Broken glass, your fake reflection Telling them it's all for something real Don't respect the words you're speaking Gone too far, acclaim!! So how does it feel to know that someones kid in the heart of America Has blood on their hands, fighting to defend your rights So you can maintain the lifestyle that insults his family's existence Well, where I'm from we have a special salute we aim high in the air Towards all those pompous assholes who spend their days pointing fingers Fuck you Shh quiet, you might piss somebody off Like the heartbeat of this country when antagonized too long I'll be damned if you count me in as part of your generous hypocrisy Collecting enemies (Tabloid gossip queen, worthless man) There's no need for us to bury you (Selfish agenda, once again) Right this way, you've dug your own grave Telling them it's all for something real Don't respect the words you're speaking Gone too far, acclaim! All the way from the east to the west We've got this high society looking down on this very foundation Constantly reminding us that our actions are the cause of all their problems Pointing the fingers in every direction Blaming their own nation for who wins elections They've never contributed a fucking thing to the country they love to criticize Excuse the obscene, ignore the untrue Depictions we see, try and get through Admitting mistakes can't hurt I'm not the last but I sure ain't the first Shh quiet, you might piss somebody off (Self-righteousness is wearing thin) Lies inside your head your best friend (Heart bleeds but not for fellow man) Broken glass, your fake reflection Telling them it's all for something real Don't respect these words you speaking Gone too far, acclaim. |

1 posts | Error in the lyrics:
"I've had enough it's time for something real" Correct lyrics: "I've had enough it's all for something real" No big deal, but they are my favorite band. |

2 posts | And also instead of "It's time for something real" the lyrics are "It's all for something real". |

2 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This is an amazing song. But unfortunatly some lyrics are still incorrect. Instead of "damn lord got queen" the correct lyrics are "Tabloid gossip queen". In my opinion this song is not political at all. Avenged Sevenfold is sending a message to all the military protesters and anti-war groups. We fight for their right to protest us. If it was not for us we would not be the great country that we are. Semper Fi Marines. OOOHHHRRRAAHHH!!!!!! |

| | |
1 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal To MXsno7 it is A clone not acclaim if u listen really well it doesnt sound like acclaim at all and if u go on their website it says it to so OWNED |
| | |
1 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal The lyrics are alright until they get to the revs singing part its not "A Clone!!!" its "Acclaim" kinda explains the title of the song |
| | |
3 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Ahhh, it's beautiful. I'm really sorry to be picky, but for the chorus, it's not "acclaim", it's "a clone", just, i know A7X would perfer the pwopa lyrics, sorry dudes. |

1 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal The best thing about this song is that in many ways it is quite political and not many bands can pull off a political song as they just sound as if they are ranting but Avenged Sevenfold most certainly can! They could write a song about public loos or bunny rabbits and it would still sound good |

7 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I have mixed feelings about this song but I will say that it does have an awesome beat and the vocals are performed amazingly. In my opinion though it is a political song. Though it doesn't talk about politics involving politicians and things of that nature, it does deal with issues that are very heated in the political world which to me makes it a political song. I have nothing against political songs mind you, just thought I'd point it out. |

50 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Overall, this is a good song on an album that did not impress me, its too slow to be called Avenged Sevenfold. And to that guy who though he says "acclaim" "a clone" He does say "gone too far, a clone" as a reference to those people who do nothing but insult our nation and are just like each other, all of those people are all the same, like a clone |
| | |
1 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I love this song!! It is awesome!! And to the person who thinks that the lyrics are wrong, they aren't. It is "a clone" not acclaim. Avenged Sevenfold are amazing! |

1 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I'm tired of people saying that this song by the great A7x that this song is political. If your going to review this song then at least pay atention to the lyrics. The thrue meaning of Critical Acclaim is that it critisizes the critizisers. By this I mean it talks about the people who insult the solders in the war. It is not political in anyway. When in the begining where it goes "Shhh be quiet you might piss somebody off" it refers to the people who lay back in america and insults its greatness by insulting never doing anything.What he means by we have a special way of saluting he means the middle finger to those people who only critize their country by insulting the solders.This is the true meaning of the song. Also one of M. Shadows friends is in war. so yea f u people who only critisize. And just know we are #1 and all others are just jealous. |
