You can teach your dogs to bite
You can train the boys to fight
You can dig your holes and hide
Until it's safe again to step outside
But you can keep that sponge away from my brain
Try as you might
My point of view won't change
You can flash your images on my screen
You can decide the headlines I'm allowed to read
You can push whatever content into my feed
Dress them all in pretty bold colours make sure I see
But you can keep that sponge away from my brain
Try as you might
My point of view won't change
And you can go on thinking you're right
Take refuge in plain sight
And you could wipe away my smile
But you'll never lay a finger on what I hold inside
So you can save your breath, don't speak my name
I have no interest in being part of your game
I reside myself to spend my days in this cage
And you can sit up on your cloud but inside we're all the same
So you can keep that sponge away from my brain
Try as you might
My point of view won't change
