THE AUTHORITIES ARE UNHAPPY

The Authorities are unhappy
You've been asleep
They've punched you in with a sideways grin
And they've saved to delete

You're in their D-base now and girl
You're theirs for keeps
You'll know no peace, they'll break you into
Bit by bit by bit by bit!

So come away
Come away
Away
Come away

Regard the talons, carrion
Prepare the feast
They've called you dead virtually
An otiose redundancy

They caught your REM
Inattention!
Drugged dreams offend
Judges in superego robes
Put you away
Away
Away
Put away
Away
Put you away

(Go to A# chord for transition, then...)
The Authorities are unhappy
You've been asleep
They've called your kluge a pointless ruse
Erasure is the penalty

You've never been an innocent
But you're confused
You closed your eyes, let yourself fly
With Morpheus
Away Away Away

(Hold on G# chord, then...)
They caught your REM
Inattention
Drugged dreams offend
It's time to wake
For your own sake
And come away
Away Away
Come Away Away
Come away...
