Shepherd says to sleep tonightnHe will watch us sheep tonightnMy big brother in the satellite nWill keep us safe from harmnnThe watchdogs all are dozin' now nThe polygraphs are frozen nownHush your voice of reason, sleep deeply in their armsnnI got…nToys in the atticnMonsters under the bednGhosts in the cupboardnI got curtains made 'o leadnBats in the belfry nGoblins out in the shed…nWell I was cryin' for a vision, I got static instead nBoy, oh boy, I got a noisy headnnThe emperor in his new clothes nIs playin' with his dominoesnHe's got puppet strings from head to toesnAnd an army of PinocchiosnnI got the radio on, all I'm receivin'nIs a web of little lies that they keep weavin'nIf you wanna babble on and on deceivin'nTry to tell a lie that's worth believin'nnI'm hearing whispers from our history booksnThe kings, queens, bishops, knights and rooksnAnd the blood they spilled, the gold they tooknWas always first the pawn's
