Someone phoned and said "hello?" 
And for about, well hum, I dunno 
A few split seconds I thought "Oh no" 
"I know that voice"... so I said real slow 
"Uh yes?" Who could it be? 
Of course it turned out 
There was no room for doubt 
It was you all along 
It's just that your voice 
Was covered in noise 
That didn't belong 
You said "Don't mention my name 
I got something to say. 
The police came around 
About ten minutes ago 
They got my address book 
And you aught to know, 
They we're asking weird questions 
About what I believe 
And reading my fanzines 
And your record sleeves." 
I said "Get off the phone 
I don't think we're alone, 
I keep hearing these noises 
They're tapping my phone. 
They're searching your house 
And now they'll search mine, 
They'll pull us all in 
If they get enough time. 
If you've done nothing wrong 
They'll make up a crime, 
They'll say you're unbalanced 
Cos you went out of line. 
There's no freedom to move 
Unless it's forward or back 
And you can't speak your mind 
Cos your phone's being tapped. 
But we know all these things 
So we have to react. 
They're not defending our freedom 
It's blatant attack, 
They take all our freedom 
And give nothing back. 
They take all our freedom"
