“Panic Attack” Lyrics:
The clamour and the clatter of incensed keys
Can bring a nation to its knees
On the wings of a lethal icon
Bird of preyIt’s a sign of the times when bedlam rules
When the masses condone pompous fools
And the scales of justice
Tip in disarrayPanic Attack Panic Attack
Matters of fact fall on deaf ears
While the bitter mobs ramp up their fears
Go creeping round those corridors of powerAs the dead heads gladly suffer sins
While the euthanising then begins
The clock is ticking down to doomsday hourPanic Attack Panic Attack
Alien nations gleam
Cybertronic schemes
Fibre optic mass hypnotic
Wild neurotic memesCynicism greed what you’re fed
Disconnecting from the world wide webIt don’t matter about your choice
Cause all you’ve got is an empty voice
And there’s no way left to tell what’s right from wrongThere’s still time left to do what’s right
Eliminate those parasites
And force your mind amidst the angry throngPanic Attack Panic Attack
Disconnect the systemPanic Attack Panic Attack
Euthanise the brainPanic Attack Panic Attack
Blind synthetic wisdomPanic Attack Panic Attack
Digitally criminally insanePanic Attack Panic Attack
