Java only uses braces to denote blocks, whilst Lisp uses parenthesis for everything. Contrast:

    (if (= x 0)
      (foo x)
      (bar x))

And:

    if (x == 0) {
        foo(x);
    }
    else {
        bar(x);
    }

The Lisp code has 8 parenthesis, whilst the Java code only has 4 braces. However, the Java code also has 6 parenthesis and 2 semicolons, so in total the Lisp code only has 8 control flow tokens, whilst the equivalent Java has 12 (or 13, if you count the 'else').
