Lyrics & Translation
English
In this secret time, invading on our privacy
Unknowing we mime, we play for the ministry
The can film you in bed
Or when you take a bath
They can tape every cry
They can tape every laugh
They can turn you around so you won't know what's
Real by reel
Busy little bees recording everything you feel
On real by reel
Documented down like rats
They're catching up on every squeal
On real by reel
Real by reel by real by
In this hidden time, ignorance may help you to cope
Rehearsing for crimes, in government cinemascope
The can film you at work
Or when they let you play
They can tape what you think
They can tape what you say
They can't blur your I.D. so you won't know what's
Now I lay me down to sleep
Knowing that your lenses peep
Now I eat my daily bread
And into the tape spool I'll be fed

En este tiempo secreto, invadiendo nuestra privacidad
Sin saberlo, mimetizamos, jugamos para el ministerio
Te pueden filmar en la cama
O cuando te bañas
Pueden grabar cada llanto
Pueden grabar cada risa
Pueden darte la vuelta para que no sepas qué es
Real por carrete
Abejitas ocupadas grabando todo lo que sientes
En real por carrete
Documentados como ratas
Están al tanto de cada chillido
En real por carrete
Real por carrete por real por
En este tiempo oculto, la ignorancia puede ayudarte a sobrellevarlo
Ensayando crímenes, en cinemascope gubernamental
Te pueden filmar en el trabajo
O cuando te dejan jugar
Pueden grabar lo que piensas
Pueden grabar lo que dices
No pueden difuminar tu identificación para que no sepas qué es
Ahora me acuesto a dormir
Sabiendo que tus lentes espían
Ahora como mi pan de cada día
Y en la bobina de cinta seré alimentado
