No one's making any noise now, sshhh
We've been waiting for so long
They took away our films and tapes and notebooks
But it's ok 'cos we've self-censored this song
But these lines are all individuals
And there's no such thing as a song
And even the silent are now guilty in the empire of the senseless
What's your line of questioning, sir?
Empire of the senseless
I can't interrupt (intercept) a one word sentence
Invent a war in secrecy
Sliding scenery like a vintage toy
Isn't plastic surgery wonderful?
Satellite secret national security
Empire of the senseless
Turning journalists into heroes takes some doing
Empire of the senseless
Boring Ollie North down in the subway dealing drugs and guns
Empire of the senseless
Turning little liars into heroes, it's what they've always done
Empire of the senseless
This song promotes homosexuality
It's in a pretended family relationship with the others on this record
And on the charts and on the jukebox
And in the radio
And in the radio
No one's making any noise now, sshhh
Stay quiet
All unacceptable gropings have been removed from the screen
Only eyes full of unspeakable thoughts remain
And even the silent are now guilty in the empire of the senseless
Baked beans, sugar, and margarine
Empire of the senseless
Bread, jam, groceries, and lard
For the unsentimental
The men who like the lady hard
The men who like
the hard lady
"And you know that people are really rather afraid
Empire of the senseless
Afraid of being swamped"
Afraid of being swamped by selfishness and greed
