Lyrics Chumbawamba – Menwith Hill
Text:
Here we are at Menwith Hill
they dug a hole on land not theirs.
filled with computers called Menwith Hill:
7 floors down, hidden from view,
official secret, don’t let us know
how they spend money whilst people starve.
They call it progress, «this year’s thing»
1984 — they’re listening in —
Technology made them robot people!
They tap our phones, record our lives;
Destroy the TRUST that we should all SHARE!
how they spend money whilst people starve.
They call it progress, «this year’s thing»
1984 — they’re listening in —
Technology made them robot people!
They tap our phones, record our lives;
Destroy the TRUST that we should all SHARE!
Spoken word piece
Listening to everything that we say.
silencing the little that we can say.
watching what we do in every way.
But they can’t hear desire and they
can’t see though
they can’t see the traces of the spark
inside me
wanting to be free.
