We chain them well, increase the law, they sleep well (there is no harm)
and didn't set the alarm.
We give them drugs, keep them quiet, they sleep well (there is no harm)
and didn't set the alarm.

They dream and sleep well-behaved and deep.

Democracy, the right to vote, they sleep well (there is no harm)
and didn't set the alarm.
Complete control, a police state, they sleep well (there is no harm)
and didn't set the alarm.

They dream and sleep well-behaved and deep.

We raise the tax, keep them poor, they sleep well (there is no harm)

and didn't set the alarm.
We infiltrate, play them off, they sleep well (there is no harm)
and didn't set the alarm.

They dream and sleep well-behaved and deep.

We let them dream, we let them sleep, the sleep of the sheep, gentle and deep.
We let them dream and sleep tonight, but tomorrow ...
We knock at their front door!
