World in Chains

It turned you into an automaton 

Now all you're into is robot fun 

My tears are falling down 

The tears are flowing now 

All I can say is “bye-bye baby, bye-bye" 

 

He said “I don't want your love, 

I don't want your love no more,  

Go sell it to the highest bidder" 

My tears are falling down 

The tears are flowing now 

All I can say is “bye-bye baby, bye-bye" 

 

Now that feeling's been restored 

I can't believe how easily you fall in love 

It makes you think, it makes you think 

 

Needing to reboot the system 

There's a gaping void inside us 

Lurid trophies left in pieces 

No insurance policy for broken dreams 

Universal proclamations 

Oblique and indecipherable 

Wilful anodyne description 

There's no incentive to get written 

 

The world is still in chains
