It’s a Cold War Reagan baby, get it done
We’re all in mortal danger now it’s 1981
And if the Reds are placing bets I think they’ve already won
The nukes are poised at Defcon and it’s already begun
You’ve got to dance The Paranoia, we’ve got something for ya
It’s NineteenEightyOne
You’ve got to dance The Paranoia, yes, they’re coming for ya
It’s NineteenEightyOne
Star Wars tech defence we look to the skies
ICBM from us to them, it’s Lord of the Flies
Don’t trust your friends and family, they could all be spies
If the war is lost, the final cost, our freedom dies
You’ve got to dance The Paranoia, we’ve got something for ya
It’s NineteenEightyOne
You’ve got to dance The Paranoia, yes, they’re coming for ya
It’s NineteenEightyOne
They’re hiding in our closets, watching through our TV’s
Our guns are locked and loaded now, nobody breathe
If Reagan says, “That’s the way it is”, we’ve got to believe
The game is smoke and mirrors, bait, switch and deceive
You’ve got to dance The Paranoia, we’ve got something for ya
It’s NineteenEightyOne
You’ve got to dance The Paranoia, yes, they’re coming for ya
It’s NineteenEightyOne

Solitary Observer

In the beginning we had no order
Now we see the Light shines brighter than you
See the Light
In the darkness beyond the boarder
Breathing easy, with hope that we’ll pull through
We see the Light
We tried to catch that falling star
No matter where or who we are
We had to
We tried our best, we tried too hard
We pushed ourselves a bit too far
We had to
We watch the Light and see disorder
Wait for a time when the truth shouts louder than you
Observe the Light
The “Lone Observer” who fears disorder
Distance themselves from an end which could come soon
They observe the light
We tried and dropped that falling star
But now we know just who we are
We’re no-one
We missed the mark we failed to find
And now we’re lost and left behind
We’re no-one

You say you want to play a game
We’re not too sure we want to take the blame
When Simon says
You say bring the bodies home
We obey and play along
When Simon says
You say you want the policy
We obey reluctantly
When Simon says
You say you want more hostility
But we don’t want responsibility
When Simon says
You say bring the bodies home
We obey and play along
When Simon says
You say we should fight to be free
As we fill our cemeteries
When Simon says

The mind dictates what the body needs
And if the soul is weak then the conscience bleeds
Most people don’t know where this highway leads
Too little cash to spend too many mouths to feed
So, count me out
I’m not interested in your fucking games
Your own worst enemy
Cos you’ll never find that middle ground
We should make our own decisions when we are able
Forge our own opinions when they’re based on fact
At least the Left and Right keep the Centre stable
(The Centre stable)
(Your own worst enemy
(Your own worst enemy)
(Cos you’ll never find that middle ground)
So, count me out
I’m not interested in your fucking games
Your own worst enemy
Cos you’ll never find that middle ground
If you don’t agree with one, then you’re clearly the other
And complex moral views are a thing of the past
If you think you’re free to speak (Ha) don’t bother
(Don’t bother)
So, count me out
I’m not interested in your fucking games
Your own worst enemy
Cos you’ll never find that middle ground

The lights are low and figures lean
In close to hear and listen in
The room is bare like once before
We start again
We close the door
And here we are
Beyond the stars
And we are hoping
If sound is heard and never seen
The splintered glass and gasoline
The voices fade, and we ignore
We start again
We close the door
And here we are
We’re bound and scarred
And we are broken
And here we are
Beyond the stars
And we are hoping
And here we are
We’re bound and scarred
And we are broken
