LYRICS:
The Sounds of Surveillance
by Si-mark and Scott-funkel

Hello Siri, my old friend
You've come to spy on me again
Because the websites that I've been browsing
Give you insight into my thinking
Paranoia that you planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sounds of surveillance

And in the metaverse I saw
Three billion people, maybe more
People texting without speaking
People swiping without reading
People monitored by devices that never cared
No one dared
Disturb the sounds of surveillance

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the screen flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the screen said, "The billions in profits are written in the smartphone apps
Like Google Maps"
And whispered in the sounds of surveillance

"Building A Surveillance State," by A Small Woodland Animal.

From Mark Hurst's Techtonic show on WFMU. Originally aired on the April 23, 2018 episode.

LYRICS FOR YOUR SING ALONG:

Building a surveillance state
Google, Google
Privacy is what they hate
All Google day

It's Facebook, too
They're spying on you
We've got to change before it's too late
All Google day
