Lyrics by Bernd Harmsen their cameras capture each move when you're in town they track your smartphone when you walk around they gather information, but they're out for more they ignore your rights and they bend the law they've got the means, they've got the expertise nobody's able to escape the thought police each piece of news you read or hear has been edited they know which web sites you have visited they read your mail, they store each single text you post they know your fears, they know what you like most they've got the means, they've got the expertise nobody's able to escape the thought police 'bout unusual behaviour they are keeping lists they say they need it to fight terrorists you may think that you're alone but their spies are near when you dream of freedom you can hear them sneer they've got the means, they've got the expertise nobody's able to escape the thought police they've got the means, they've got the expertise there's no-one to control the thought police
