Hey There NSA! (a cappella) Songtext

Hey There NSA! (a cappella) Songtext
This is for Chelsea Manning
This is for Edward Snowden
This is for all the whistleblowers who we′ll never know
And this is for Anonymous
This is for Avaaz
The following lyrics are going to be particularly harsh
How long before they're storing all of it?
They know my lyrics before I recorded ′em
Shit's getting more and more Orwellian
How long before they hoard everything?
They know my Facebook war messages
They can read my email and it's all effortless
They know my porn preference and dwarf fetishes
But they don′t know what the difference between laws and ethics is
But now we′ve all found out what the eff it is
We'd better give them a lesson in etiquette
You want to heckle the Bolivian president?
You better give me some evidence, it′d be evident
If you were meddling in another government
Up in this web we're in
So I′m sending this to the president
You're setting a sickening precedent
Said I′m sending this to the president
You're setting a sickening precedent
Oh, now I've written a threatening letter
This kid is a dissident rep
Well, we′d better get him on the list
Of significant threats with the rest of America
If you love your country
Your country should love you too
But how can you trust someone who doesn′t trust you?
Prison is a prison and the prison is your mind
Pulling out the pecker and they're pissing on your eyes
So let′s take a leaf out of their hands
And take a leak every opportunity we can
If you love your country
Your country should love you too
But how can you trust someone who doesn't trust you?
I′m watching you watching me
We're a drama scene
But the chemistry′s not there
There's no bonhomie
Mister Obama needs to heed the words of Romney
'Cause he′s got binders full of everyone, it′s morally fucked
The clock strikes thirteen on the dot
Another whistleblower finds a little glowing spot
Right between his eyes, in the middle of his forehead
For revealing lies, his prize is that he falls dead
I'm watching you watching me
Watching you watching me
And between us, there′s a lot to see
We'd probably rather not have leaked
I′m watching you watching me
Wondering to what degree
Your intercepts infringe my intellectual property
The clock strikes thirteen on the dot
Another whistleblower finds a little glowing spot
Between his eyes, in the middle of his forehead
For revealing lies, his prize is that he falls dead
Someone at the National Security Agency
Could blatantly be paid a fee
Create a breach to basically mean
Any shady people are safe and free to take a pee
Look, I don't believe in evil
But I believe in greed or paranoia
Power hungry, that′s abusive
Absolute power corrupts absolutely
And I'll hammer that home 'til they have to shoot me
I′ll be happy to head down the bookies
And bet that they′re getting a good look at my cookies
They're up all night to get cookies
They′re up all night to get cookies
They're up all night to get cookies
They′re up all night to get cookies
And who took the cookies out the cookie jar?
If you can't see that, then you aren′t looking far
The clock strikes thirteen on the dot
Another whistleblower finds a little glowing spot
Between his eyes, in the middle of his forehead
For revealing lies, his prize is that he falls dead
When the NSA watches everything we say
We've got to make sure we say what we really need to say
So hey there, NSA
How are you today?
This is for Edward Snowden
This is for all the whistleblowers who we′ll never know
And this is for Anonymous
This is for Avaaz
