Washington dot com

Well they said that it would all be good

Until the day in all went wrong

When a guy called Edward Snowden

Got in trouble with Washington dot com

And people got real hot under the collar

When Julian Assange said don’t be fooled

We all know the Central Intelligence Agency

Is trying to rule the world

And the CIA hired lots of Action Men

Whom they trained to stop attackers

Until they fired their general in Afghanistan

And hired a bunch of hackers

But I’ve got a real bad feeling

That something might go wrong

Because I can’t get any information

Out of Washington dot com

And they say that Congress and MI5

Are suspicious of the things we say

Because fear seeks information

And Facebook is sub-contracted to the NSA

And the world is going to fall apart

If you believe the guys from WikiLeaks

Because soon the Pentagon won’t be run by politicians

But by anarchists and a bunch of geeks

Oh there’s a battle that’s raging

And its getting hard to hide

But with luck we’ll win the War on Terror

If God’s still on our side

But the world is getting suspicious

And the world is getting small

There’s grey smoke on the horizon

And anger in Whitehall

Yes we live in a suspicious world

Where you can’t turn back at the eleventh hour

Because the Kremlin’s stamping its big feet

Down the long, dark corridors of power

Oh there’s anger and frustration

So paint your passports brown

We might be swimming in information

But be careful or you might drown

And the world is watched by satellite

Big Brother and Peeping Tom

But the government don’t understand

Why people don’t get along

Perhaps we ought to blame the politicians
