Real By Reel

XTC

In this secret time, invading on our privacy

Unknowing we mime, we play for the ministry

The can film you in bed

Or when you take a bath

They can tape every cry

They can tape every laugh

They can turn you around so you won't know what's



Real by reel

Busy little bees recording everything you feel

On real by reel

Documented down like rats

They're catching up on every squeal

On real by reel

Real by reel by real by



In this hidden time, ignorance may help you to cope

Rehearsing for crimes, and sex just in government cinemascope

The can film you at work

Or when they let you play

They can tape what you think

They can tape what you say

They can't blur your I.D. so you won't know what's



Now I lay me down to sleep

Knowing that your lenses peep

Now I eat my daily bread

And into the tape spool I'll be fed
