Under Direction

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Our little part of the world's become the scene Of a formidable full-fledged super scheme A masterplan to conform the frames Clinically clean from cultural claims Heterogeneity, to be homogeneitized Diversification getting imperialized Variety and difference to be compromised The play is written- don't improvise It's a bureaucratic challenge the wisemen say To simplify business and to increase the trade Money, goods and man moving freely A pretty good idea, but is it that simple really? A heart of concrete containing the norms And all the guidance you need on how to fill out the forms A shrine, impenetrable for all Drawing up the lines on how to play ball A well written script preceding the act We need it all on paper to control the pact So give your habits up and get into the cash-flow And let us direct the show [Chorus] Do you want to play the game? (Under direction) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Under direction) Improvise within the frame (Under direction) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Under direction) [Verse 2] Lights to the camera to the action The papers here in front of you are just a tiny fraction If you want a part on stage You'll have to put a sign on the millionth page Bibles just on trading, duck eggs over borders So that anyone anywhere can have them for hors d'oeuvres The paperless office turns into a paper life We want to stay sharp, but we all know what dulls the knife So now our little corner's the scene (the scene) A zillion dollar baby growing to be mean A non-cultural multi-national supermarket team A not very lean fighting machine So powers in the East and powers in the West All be awake- the community is best Never taking action when we realize So once again we end up institutionalized [Chorus] Do you want to play the game? (Under direction) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Under direction) Improvise within the frame (Under direction) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Under direction) Do you want to play the game? (Under direction) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Under direction) Improvise within the frame (Under direction) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Under direction) [Chorus] Do you want to play the game? (Under direction) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Under direction) Improvise within the frame (Under direction) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Under direction) Do you want to play the game? (Under direction) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Under direction) Improvise within the frame (Under direction) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah [Outro] Heterogeneity, to be homogeneitized (Do you-) Diversification getting imperialized (Do you-) Variety and difference to be compromised (Do you-) The play is written- don't improvise (Do you-) Don't improvise (Do you-) Under direction (Do you-) Under direction (Do you-) (Do you-) Under direction (Do you-) Under direction
