evening. A severe storm system is moving across the region tonight. Heavy rainfall, violent winds, and widespread thunderstorms are expected. Residents are advised to remain indoors... locked inside your little, pitiful pods. And remember, a well-behaved citizen knows its place. Happiness is mandatory for a well-functioning society.

Verse 1

You gave yourself away

when they asked for

it

gave your own name

down

to chain it to a pen

Chorus

When decisions stick

… like glue

and you are in range

… in your pen

the walls are built

to keep you in

A mindless slave

an animal in its cage

animal in its cage

Important announcement: Obedience is rewarded. Dissent constitutes a federal offense and will result in exclusion from the social credit system. Report all dissidence. Total adherence to the official narrative is a citizen's duty. These terms are non-negotiable.

Credentials certify

your submission

the beast doesn’t

ask

for permission, it

just takes ... it takes away

Chorus

When decisions stick

… like glue

and you are in range

… in your pen

the walls are built

to keep you in

A mindless slave

an animal in its cage

Verse 3 / Bridge

Just another liberty

taken down …

it tastes like

sugar-coated bravery

the monsters are

loose

deep inside the

mouth …

that spits its laws

Extended Guitar Solo

Lead-out

the beast doesn’t

ask

for permission

it just takes …

animal in its cage

animal in its cage …

it just takes
