"Obey The Ghost" lyrics - GANG OF FOUR

GANG OF FOUR
"Obey The Ghost"
(Andy Gill)

[Intro:]
I wander, I drift aimlessly through a glittering world up on [?]
And I [?] anymore, spin the web we weave

They make black and white of complexity
We're Facebook friends with celebrities
Hold my hand in the community
And irony is a luxury

[Chorus:]
It's everything I know
I take what I'm sold
I hear everything I'm told
Nothing I can't control

[Post-Chorus:]
I obey, I obey the ghost
The ghost of the colony

They make black and white of complexity
Scapegoats live at home as refugees
Online [?] speak personally to me
They hold my hand in the community

[Chorus:]
It's everything I know
I take what I'm sold
I hear everything I'm told
Nothing I can't control

[Outro:]
I obey the ghost of the colony
I obey the ghost of the colony
