[Verse 1]
In the halls of Stockholm's pride
Paper pushers far and wide
Dancing through the grey parade
While secrets slip into the shade
Coffee breaks and meeting rooms
Where deals bloom like summer blooms
[Chorus]
Oh, sweet neutrality
What a dance of hypocrisy
Stamp the papers, turn away
That's how we earn our pay
In this midsummer masquerade
Where morals slowly fade
[Verse 2]
Mama worked the district hall
Said "son, we're neutral through it all"
But Magnus whispered late at night
About the deals sealed out of sight
While accordions play on
Till conscience is long gone
[Bridge]
They say we're keeping peace
But money never sleeps
In offices so clean
We hide what shouldn't be seen
[Chorus]
Oh, sweet neutrality
What a dance of hypocrisy
Stamp the papers, turn away
That's how we earn our pay
In this midsummer masquerade
Where morals slowly fade
[Outro]
So dance with me tonight
Pretend it's all alright
While somewhere far from here
The truth we hold so dear
Is buried in the files
Behind our peaceful smiles
