Every cel phone in every pocket

Damn near all tech on the market

Turned on or not a hot light spot

Seeing all you doin’ in private

Ain’t no Hollywood movie fantasy

Welcome to the new roaring twenties

Everyone’s a threat of substance

Protection via Surveillance

V.R. is just a P.R. con

In Actual Reality what’s really going on

Everybody needs a hit of A R

Cause whatever’s happening Virtually

Must be programmed by someone Actually

Actual Reality is where you want to be

Choose words carefully at home and on the street

In these surveillance days best be discreet

Machines looking out for threats of substance

You can bet your ass on programmed persistence

Life is engraved electric footprints forever saved

Everything ever done on line

Sifted by thought machines at any time

Anything done today- Tomorrow could be a crime

Welcome to the new roaring twenties

Everyone’s a threat of substance

Protection via Surveillance

Don’t tell me you don’t care

If they’re spying on you

In this centuries roaring 20’s

We’re getting chopped up

With electronic machetes

What’s going on

What’s going on
