belles in monica - y'all under surveillance (g-sharp remix) lyrics

intro
“watch out watch out”

verse 1

all began in the eighties as a reaction, by the art faction, in charge of the star attractions
tryin’ to get ratings, one of their failings, puttin’ a fresh young wise guy on the screen and shoutin’ action
do what they say and fear the day, i want you to get real and you’re dealin’ with a minority view
represented by the heads of a new station, in a nation, who’d come to say what they think without reprisals or fear
in a so called democracy, so many had fought and died for rightly or wrongly
now we got a new term sweepin’ the language, altogether now everybody think p.c
it’s an easy target, tell the youth what to say against a hardline power of the day, now the fear
do what you hear is the right way to be, can’t you see you got the power of your mind you’re free
what’s up with the moral standpoint situation, i don’t get with your programme all this misinformation
where you from, what brings you to this part of town
you askin’ me to be gettin’ down with you for the sake and in aid of what exactly
everything you seem to touch or affect ends in tragedy
the fact is you ain’t done nothin’ in your life to earn the kind of respect the people need to be givin’ you
to dignify, and make you leader elect

verse 2

it’s always those who create nothin’ that get all the power
with their greater knowledge they speak on things they know nothing about
every hour on the radio or in the press, they become celebrities, a status beyond their abilities
when they should be learnin’ humility, and apologizin’ to the nation for years of abuse of the truth
on a moral crusade, tryin’ to shape a utopia which only exists in their own minds
and that’s intelligenzia crimes
real prejudice exsists when you do somethin’ for the sake of it
tryin’ to be stylish, people in the public not knowin’ what to make of it
cos all they see is them payin’ for the crimes of others
and all they see is then payin’ for the choice of a mother
and all they hear about is how there ain’t enough equal rights
special rights is the fact, don’t be fooled cos their smooth veneer’s cracked
and all they hear about is how they gotta give more of their time and pay to those who live far away

chorus 1

y’all under surveillance, we are watchin’ your failings
y’all under surveillance, watch out watch out
y’all under surveillance, emergency stations
y’all under surveillance, watch out watch out
y’all under surveillance when it finally happens
y’all under surveillance all you various factions
y’all under surveillance it begins today
y’all under surveillance, you’re history

verse 3

here’s an example, girl works for a firm, in the eyes of the housing department lives alone
but she shares her home, with her mechanic boyfriend who’s claimin’ benefit
but doin’ a bit here, doin’ a bit there, sellin’ pirate videos, gettin’ his money from everywhere and anywhere
when they book a vacation, can you guess the location, is it off to a nearby resort that they all wanna go
you sh-ttin’ me man, two weeks in mexico
but on her return her friends call her up to say they got tickets for a women’s interest tv show to be filmed on the wednesday
subject bein’ equal opportunities and all that kinda thing, so she phones back and says, yeah i’ll go
she’s known for havin’ a mouth on her, for havin’ her say
it’s her well known opinion that the cause of all problems in the world is men today
despite one inventin’ the television, the telephone, the things she uses and abuses
the presenter stalkin’ the studio floor like a cat in heat, ten opinions a minute gets the girls up on their feet
do we want this, do we want that, are our rights being abused
when we go window shopping do you think my man can afford all that
so they’re driving back in a new car i’ve indirectly paid for through my taxes
but no matter the faxes i send to the press to highlight the distress
this state of affairs cause me and a million others, i just can’t get access
bit like a divorced father, and what’s this business about half anyway
still be livin’ at your mother’s gettin’ around on a cheap day
when you question the whole d-mn thing from local authorities, to media, to education
you’re told don’t sweat it, or you’ll regret
the majority opinion’s changing for the better and you need to get down with it
well is that so, in the real world i don’t think so
on behalf of the rest of the world this is how it goes
what the f-ck we all gotta get down with you for
what the f-ck we all gotta get down with you for
what the f-ck we all gotta get down with you for
you’re all burned out, no one listens to your ideas no more
what the f-ck we all gotta get down with you for
what the f-ck we all gotta get down with your for
what the f-ck we all gotta get down with you for
what the f-ck we all gotta get down with you for

chorus 2

y’all under surveillance, we are watchin’ your failings
y’all under surveillance, watch out watch out
y’all under surveillance, emergency stations
y’all under surveillance, watch out watch out
y’all under surveillance, when it finally happens
y’all under surveillance, all you various factions
y’all under surveillance, it begins today
y’all under surveillance, you’re history
