Paranoia

 

What's that over there?

What's that over here?

What's that thing this thing

that forges thus our fear?


Did you hear this?

Did you hear that?

Did you hear the bad report

and know the chitter chat?


We must believe it all

We must adhere to them

We must be paranoid about

their every whit and whim


For they know best for us

For they know all you see

For they lie not though contradict

depending on the breeze


It must be right of course

It must be all the truth

It must be just as they have said

t'would not be on the news


So let us now have fear

So let us be afraid

So let us paranoia reign

and all of us be played


And drown we must oblige

And drown we all shall be

And drown beneath the path of fear

that others hope we'll be


Ensnare our willing fate

Ensnare our forceful will

Ensnare our great ambition drive

toward paranoia's ill


Till paralyzed we be

till paralyzed and still

Till paralyzed and quiet mass

without a doubt or shrill


So bow our willing heads

So bow our bended knee

So bow our hope in sacred word

and never more be free
