Empire Of The Senseless
no one's making any noise now, sshhh, we've been waiting for so long, they took away our films and tapes and notebooks but it's ok 'cos we've self-censored this song. but these lines are all individuals and there's no such thing as a song and even the silent are now guilty in the empire of the senseless... what's your line of questioning sir? i can't interupt (intercept) a one word sentence, invent a war in secrecy sliding scenery like a vintage toy, isn't plastic surgery wonderful? satillite secret national security, empire of the senseless turning journalists into heroes takes some doing, empire of the senseless boring ollie north down in the subway dealing drugs and guns, empire of the senseless turning little liars into heroes, it's what they've always done, empire of the senseless this song promotes homosexuality it's in a pretended family relationship with the others on this record and on the charts and on the jukebox and on (in) the radio and in the radio no one's making any noise now, sshhh, stay quiet, all unacceptable gropings have been removed from the screen, only eyes full of unspeakable thoughts remain, and even the silent are now guilty in the empire of the senseless... baked beans, sugar, and margerine bread, jam, groceries, and lard, for the unsentimental, the men who like the lady hard, the men who like the hard lady. "and you know that people are really rather afraid, afraid of being swamped" afraid of being swamped by selfishness and greed.
