Liberties (are a luxury you can't have)
Welcome to paradise
I'll show you how things work
you listen close, as long as you behave then this won't hurt
I'll pass legislation that limits how you live
I get drunk on power taking everything you'll give
and you won't challenge me 'cos I said it's for your safety
you will, you will obey me
you will, you will obey me
we live in a free and fair democracy
I only ban religious symbols if they don't make sense to me
freedom of speech, everyone can have their say
you'll be left in peace if you do everything my way, my way..
liberties are a luxury you can't have
liberties are a luxury you can't have
STOP!
I'm such a scaremonger, I'll freak you out your mind
i'll play on your emotions, twist your feelings till you're mine
and you won't challenge me, I am the authority
and you will, you will obey me
you will, you will obey me
pre-chorus
chorus x2
everyone just talk, dress, act the same
write a song I can dance to, make a name
you're a faceless figurine in my game
this is my game and you will play...
pre-chorus
chorus x2

I've Got A Boyfriend Now

I've got a boyfriend now
She's got bright, blonde hair and cold, grey eyes
hair tinged with the residue of old, blue dye
her eyes bleed the memories of a life left behind
her old dreams keep her up some nights
She said "i used to have my own mind, I've got a boyfriend now
had things I did and didn't like, I've got a boyfriend now
and if i want to go out at night, I ask my boyfriend now
and if he says no that's all right 'cos I've got a boyfriend"
they sit too close, hold hands too tight
his fingers rest too far up on her thin thighs
there's something too forced, something behind those eyes
her expression keeps me up some nights
She said "i used to have my own mind, I've got a boyfriend now
had things I did and didn't like, I've got a boyfriend now
and if i want to go out at night, I ask my boyfriend now
and if he says no that's alright 'cos I've got a boyfriend
boyfriend, he's the beginning, middle and end. he's my boyfriend"
he drags her close and screams
"why are you talking to him? I thought you loved me, you said you loved me
why are you talking to him? you're meant to love me, you've never loved me
and she justifies this bullshit, he does it 'cos he loves me
She said "i used to have my own mind, I've got a boyfriend now
had things I did and didn't like, I've got a boyfriend now
and if i want to go out at night, I ask my boyfriend now
and if he says no that's alright 'cos I've got a boyfriend
boyfriend, he's the beginning, middle and end. he's my boyfriend"

would you like me to be the cat?
my constituency, they don't need me
i'll go on Big Brother on all fours and drink cream
i'll miss debates that affect their fates
it's all about publicity, maybe they're into bestiality
would you like me to be that cat?
actually i'd like you to be the politician
Fuck knows what we stand for
tried to read our manifesto once, got bored
but the whip's well equipped to make me toe the party line
i don't really care, the elected dictator can decide
at least then he'll be kind to me
so very nice to me
keep me more than comfortably
giving me bonuses i don't need
do your fucking job mate
i don't care what else you do
i'm looking for an MP
not a deity from you
here's the form sir, sign your name
and list every little thing you did yesterday
i know that look mister, what's your game?
it's a test of impressions, are you ready to play?
it's not a job it's your reputation
we'll treat your mind like a mental patient
soon you'll be thinking correctly
pre-chorus
chorus
i'll lap up everything you say
if you rub me up the right way
you talk i'll pretend to listen
stroke me into submission

Anger
I can be a lovely girl sometimes
they say my temper lets me down
that i need anger management
and they're uneasy when I'm around
I don't see how it's an issue
just pray that when i swing, I miss you
you're as good as dead
this is my anger and I like it
i'm not lovely, i'm not pretty
don't try fight it
i'll be who i am, i'll be me
i'll be whoever i want to be
if you don't want to feel my wrath
then you better not piss me off
then when you question me
i swear to god i bite my lip so i don't scream
don't think i won't get violent
i'm not the type to keep silent
i fight back
this is my anger and I like it
i'm not lovely, i'm not pretty
don't try fight it
i'll be who i am, i'll be me
i'll be whoever i want to be
I don't see how it's an issue
just pray that when i swing, I miss you
you're as good as dead
this is my anger and I like it
i'm not lovely, i'm not pretty
don't try fight it
i'll be who i am, i'll be me
i'll be whoever i want to be
whoever i want to be
