Nothing can be further removed, not everybody wants to be soothed ooooh
They're out there now in their padded cells and armchairs
Waiting for the nervous twitch that signals fear
Hooked up to a cardiogram set up so it cuts out when you cry or laugh
Worked by those who if you screw up treat you to a broken nose
If you tap your toes
Pa**ive resistance! If it's not for them then it's not for you
Pa**ive resistance! Where the only view is the right view
Pa**ive resistance! And it breaks my heart to know there's no heart involved
Put the demographics away, the directors and consultants have the final say
Hired in, take home all the ones who missed for souvenirs, for their kids to play
Pa**ive resistance! It's all programmed by programmers
Pa**ive resistance! You're just a nail underneath their hammers
Pa**ive resistance! And it breaks my heart to know there's no heart in them
Nothing can be further removed, not everybody wants to be soothed
Oooh they must be real, people that you never meet and never feel
And they don't feel you
Pa**ive resistance! You get surveyed out of existence
Pa**ive resistance! Just one in a million silent listeners
Pa**ive resistance! It's all programmed by programmers
Pa**ive resistance! You're just a nail underneath their hammers
Pa**ive resistance! And it breaks your heart
To know there's no heart involved, involved, involved
