lyrics

if I were a drone who would I be hovering now
the dissenter is the future mark, scores going up and down
if I were in charge of the secret police
I'd put everybody on a list sorted alphabetically
if I were a badge kicking in your door
I'd get in and then I'd get out again cos I'd have to go find more
if I were the One deciding who should live or die
I'd calculate all the benefit to my grand design

when you get their phone call
don't give the wrong answer
when you see them coming
just turn your head and look away

it feels like a dream burning the back of my eyes
standing in the line for rations upon which we all rely
playing out the fantasy of the puppeteer hidden from view
I don't need no damn strings pulling me and you don't need them pulling on you

when you get their phone call
don't give the wrong answer
when you see them coming
just turn your head and look away
when you get their phone call
don't give the wrong answer
