Big tech monopolies are on the march
Acting improperly
Working for the government and sucking us in
They capitalise on me
I thought I was protected
Pretty much hid
But they've got more power
Than the Stasi ever did
But I don't want big brother deciding my fate
Roll back the surveillance state
The door doesn't swing both ways, I can't see back
But I've welcomed them into my home
Behind DRMs, and a legal maze
Now I can't even open things I own
Am I sensor?
Or something to be sensed?
The smart cities watching
And they know I'm against
But I don't want big brother deciding my fate
Roll back the surveillance state
I've seen the sum it
And no good can come of it
Stories like this always
End unhappily
Democracy dies
Everyone cries
Behind closed doors then
Descend dramatically
But I don't want big brother deciding my fate
Roll back the surveillance state
In a world without scarcity I'm doing alright
I've every necessity
Every need met and I've security
Except the basic right to be free
I thought I was protected
Pretty much hid
But they've got more power
Than the Stasi ever did
But I don't want big brother deciding my fate
Roll back the surveillance state
