Big Brother (in the Sky)
Don’t look now
We’re being watched
Around every corner
The eyes and ears of Big Brother
Don’t look back
Don't ever look back
Live looking over your shoulder
For all your days forever more
Big Brothers up there watching you
What big eyes you have to watch our every move
Big Brothers honing in on you
What big ears you have against the ground
Do not make a sound
I spy
With my little eye
A thousand points of light
A crock of shit and a bag of lies
Snap out
Of this dream
Things aren’t quite what they seem
You’re living out someone else’s scheme
Big Brothers up there watching you
What big eyes you have to watch our every move
Big Brothers honing in on you
What big ears you have against the ground
Do not make a sound
We’ve all been lied to all along
Lulled to sleep with a siren song
The future is nigh
With Big Brother looking down
From way up in the sky
We’ve all been lied to all along
Lulled to sleep with a siren song
The future is nigh
With Big Brother looking down
From way up in the sky
Just look up
And say cheese
There’s something in your teeth
Pinpointing you within 30 feet
Look up high
And wave goodbye
Salute and give them my regards
Our voice is bass, drums and guitars
Big Brothers up there watching you
What big eyes you have
To catch our every groove
Big Brothers tuning in on you
What big ears you have against the ground
Let's go make some sound!
HEY HEY!

Lost Control
That’s not a shooting star that’s passing by
They pull my strings from up above the sky
Relays clicking inside satellites
Receiving truths and transmitting lies
We’re under the guise of being free
In this land of tyranny
We gave them our trust, our minds, our soul
And we have lost control
Even though everyone knows the score
The drones are out there and it's time to hit the floor
We have given them the means
They take everything and spite the hand that frees
We’re under the guise of being free
In this land of tyranny
We gave them our trust, our minds, our soul
And we have lost control
We’re under the guise of being free
In this land of tyranny
We gave them our trust, our minds, our soul
And we have lost control
