Tightly wound
Got my head a daze
Getting somewhat hot
'Cos this currency's our new craze
Invert your thoughts
And avoid the gaze
Before I ricochet
From all the chatter on the airwaves, yeah
We write the lines
You must subscribe
Intwined with lies
Come toe the line
Emergency!
Hangs over me
What's it all about
Turn your insides out
What's that all about?
Emergency!
Hangs over me
Tightly wound
Left your mind a haze
Where what's left is right
And got you going on this new craze
Repeat an argument
From someone wet
Praise be
These immoral TV marionettes
Our words defy
Your lying eyes
Observe the signs
Conform of die
Emergency!
Hangs over me
What's it all about
Turn your insides out
What's that all about
Emergency!
Hangs over me
What's it all about
Turn you inside out
What's that all about
Emergency!
Hangs over me
What's it all about
Turn you inside out
What's that all about
Emergency!
Hangs over me
Tightly wound
Gonna ricochet
Need a holiday
'Cos it's coming from the west side
Hide your thoughts
Gotta toe the line
Come and form a line
Before they cut you on the inside
An emergency
An emergency
An emergency
Yeah yeah
An emergency
An emergency
An emergency
Yeah yeah
An emergency
An emergency

Yeah yeah
An emergency
