This can be either a bulk automated process, such as by accessing the address book of a past victim and sending simle fishing attacks to their contacts; coming from a recognised past contact, even these poor fakes are still more likely to be accepted. More sophisticatedly, spear phishing attacks may be hand-written to target specific high-value recipients, such as when trying to break into a particular system, rather than merely trawling en masse. Social engineering is when someone uses a compelling story, authority or other means to convince someone to handover sensitive information such as usernames and passwords. An end user who is trained in cyber security awareness will have the ability to recognize those types of attacks and avoid them.

"Gimme Some Truth" conveys Lennon's frustration with deceptive politicians ("short-haired yellow-bellied sons of Tricky Dicky"), hypocrisy, and chauvinism ("tight-lipped condescending mommy's little chauvinists"). The lyrics encapsulate some widely held feelings of the time, when many people were participating in protest rallies against their governments. The song also uses a reference to the nursery rhyme "Old Mother Hubbard" (about a woman going to get her dog a bone, only to discover that her cupboard is empty) as a verb. The mention of "soft-soap" employs that slang verb in its classic sense − namely, insincere flattery that attempts to convince someone to do or to think something, as in the case of politicians who use specious or beguiling rhetoric to quell public unrest or to propagandise unfairly.
