lyrics

SS?
Police?
Arrest this one
He’s talking mathematics and science
I think he thinks he’s the new Einstein
But he sounds more like a broken typewriter

SS?
Police?
Arrest this one
Her Hitler hairdo is making me nauseous
Her intentions may be “virgin”-like
But she took me by surprise overnight

Play the records straight
We have a shortness of offices

SS?
Police?
Arrest this one
Erasing the Icons from our pasts
Listening to the music for the masses
Peacefully mating to attuned rhythms

Play the records straight
We have a shortness of offices

Before they were towed away
I’ve arrested myself

SS?
Police?
Arrest this one
Trashed my office for the second time
They will stop at nothing: it’s just business
But it kills me to read their Voodoo-economics

Play the records straight
We have a shortness of offices

Before they were towed away
I’ve arrested myself
