Lyrics
clandestine
distracted by design
the signs ignored again
the kids are bored again
everybody knows
only a fool plays by the rules
can you be a smooth operator
in a covert overture
on a seesaw of distracted watchmen
where peace is only
a temporary retraction
of one of the heads
on a two-headed dog
which side are you on?
consigliere to the boss?
you adapt so easily
you are taking your time
to follow the feelings of your melancholy mind
how soon we forget the world they gave us
we are the new wavers
ravers of the surveillance era
on a lazy river
we sleep all day
and tight lips sink ships
still you are so afraid
of the madness we’ve made
when power remains clandestine
