It's funny how when going through your old records, you can find a song that's even more relevant now than it was in 1980.
UXA - Paranoia is Freedom
I laugh and shudder at the pain of authority
And reach for the children when they`re dicing up for free
I look around me at what the shadows hid and drink
Those programmed hopeless gestures is why we`re at point blank
Cause paranoia is freedom, your freedom
Bet your gamblers or something to bleed on
Paranoia is freedom, your freedom
Bet your gamblers or something to steal from
Notice the hostage while he digs to find his wit
Four million reasons to feed a habit
I`ll play the air exchange to thin the disguise
But it takes more guts than breath to live and jest at lies
Cause paranoia is freedom, your freedom
Bet your gamblers or something to bleed on
Paranoia is freedom, its your freedom
Bet your gamblers or something to steal from
Falling down in the laboratory when you're at your best
Fun only gets to welcome when they've found you've guessed
Oh God my job is cheating on a formality
Sparks thrive - shock and horror but that`s reality
Cause paranoia is freedom, your freedom
Bet your gamblers or something to bleed on
Paranoia is freedom, your freedom
Bet your gamblers or something to steal from
