"Chief, We Need the 'Cones of Silence'"

Our thoughts, our actions, covertly stored
The "eye of the state" shan't be ignored
Grandiose spectacles of red, white and blue
Designed to dazzle, yet they're watching you

Pecking these words on laptop computer
Somewhere, someone says "a patriotic refuter"
Micro-chipped files housed deep in the ground
Your image, fingerprints, your voice...its sound

The police state emerging from its embryo
Be forewarned it hasn't got too far to go
Robespierre's smiling, no doubt Goebbels too
With modern technology...think what they'd do

A mentality predicated on things Machiavellian
With reality strictly conceived on Orwellian
Barbed tongues and barbed wire...we found too late
The "beer hall putsch" ...in the United States
