lyrics

Ideas are bricks
so they get met with sticks.
Somebody call the police
to give these hippies a kick.
Knock down anything they create.
Freeze them out the debate,
then show the public some tits.

But I wanna live in a world,
where the activist's admired
not the cake face messiah,
for standing up for what they believe
not polluting our screens
with pseudo-realistic lifestyles
that snare young minds in their gaze,
and teach young girls their only value
is as filthy, disposable lays.

And we'll be trapped unless we learn to
Spiral Out Of Control, my friends
And we'll be trapped unless we learn to
Spiral Out Of Control, again.

Now its time to start again,
do away with pretend,
and champion the people who are trying to mend
integrity in public domains.
We should give them the reigns.
Put them in front of the lens.

Cos they wanna live in a world,
where morality's admired
not corruption inspired
and everything is done by the spirit
and the letter of law,
and fairness just blooms from the core.
Its not false like what's here today.
Where our leaders take us for granted
like we're filthy, disposable lays.

And we'll be trapped unless we learn to
Spiral Out Of Control, my friends
And we'll be trapped unless we learn to
Spiral Out Of Control, again.

We Build towards our goal
We Spiral Out Of Control
(We'll be trapped unless we learn to, to spiral out of control)

And we'll be trapped unless we learn to
Spiral Out Of Control, my friends
And we'll be trapped unless we learn to
Spiral Out Of Control, again.
And we'll be trapped unless we learn to
Spiral Out Of Control, my friends
And we'll be trapped unless we learn to
Spiral Out Of Control, again.
