They said that this was an aberration I don't think that's true, I think That no way of having real, uh, control Of a secret, uh, network Now I'm not just saying that all the people in there are no good or anything like that Some are very patriotic and admirable men But it is a kind of occupation that attracts screwballs, paranoids, devil-dealers, and nuts And no way of having, no way of having rule of law, rule of law And no way of having, no way of having rule of law, rule of law Rule of law, rule of law, rule of law, rule of law I don't know the vocabulary of spooks (I don't know the, I don't know the) I don't know the vocabulary of spooks There's no sign here Intelligence agеncies (Or intelligencе bureaus) Intelligence agencies Bureaus, various departments (Various, various) States (Various, various) Pentagon, the White House, the CIA (Various) The CIA or the DIA (The National Security and the staff) The National Security and the staff An operational agency (An operational agency) A little CIA piled on top of the big CIA Intelligence and operations As the arm of the President We could not We could not, there's no way to control what they're doing No way of having, no way of having rule of law, rule of law There's no way of having, no way of having rule of law, rule of law Rule of law, rule of law, rule of law (A wink and a nod) Rule of law (A wink and a nod, a wink and a nod) No way of having, no way of having rule of law, rule of law There's no way of having, no way of having rule of law, rule of law Rule of law, rule of law, rule of law, rule of law Rule of law, rule of law, rule of law, rule of law Rule of law, rule of law, rule of law, rule of law Rule of law, rule of law How in a free society, in a free country Can you have people, uh—, can you have people, uh Running around doing lawless things?
