Iron Age Mystics - Thought Police Lyrics

Tow the line, avoid expression
Manners please, no aggression
Harmony by cold oppression
Rights to speak? just forget them!

They know where you've been, they hear what you talk, they're tracking your thoughts
Citizens, are you ready?
Tapping your wire, suppressing your fire to build an empire
They're pushing it, are you ready? Are you ready?

Look out: get ready. It's time to keep the peace
Brace yourself, stay steady. Here come the thought police, yeah
No more getting heady, your mind is under lease
Better hold it steady 'cause here come the thought police, yeah

You'd better look out

Cameras point in all directions
Honestly, it's for your protection
Don't sow the seeds of insurrection
Just line up please for your inspection

You'd better not speak, you'd better not write, you'd better stay quiet
Citizens, are you ready? Are you ready?
Tapping your line, invading your mind, it's all by design
It's immanent, are you ready? Are you ready? Yeah, yeah

Look out: get ready. It's time to feed the beast
Brace yourself, stay steady. Here come the thought police, yeah
To have your own opinion should be a crime to say the least
Best to play the minion 'cause here come the thought police, yeah

You'd better look out. You're gonna to put out. You'd better look out

Look out: get ready. The dogs have been released
Brace yourself, stay steady. Here come the thought police, yeah
No more getting heady, your mind is under lease
Better hold it steady 'cause here come the thought police, yeah

You'd better look out. You're gonna put out. You'd better look out
