tuesday - yes, it was tuesday
when i saw my congressman coming out of the titty bar
he didn´t look like my congressman, but that´s okay
nobody really looks like themselves anymore
i think its got something to do with that crap
they´ve been pouring into the water
i decided it might be wise to follow the congressman
just to see what he was up to.
after all, my tax dollars do pay his salary.
the congressman got into a taxi, so i hailed a taxi
despite the obvious dangers involved
and the coloured voices in my head began to sing:

all i gotta do is put my ear to the wall
and i can hear it all, yes i can hear it all
all i gotta do is put my ear to the wall
and i can even hear the little insects crawl

the congressman was in taxi number 23
and i was in cab 17
but numbers are meaningless in this kind of cat and squid game
my driver was an aries
and he laughed when i said "follow that cab!"
and he kept laughing until he saw the cold blue steel of little elvis
"keep your god-damn hands off that radio!" i warned him
"i work for the government!"
this is actually a half truth
i´m really a bike courier
but i make a lot of deliveries to government offices.
that´s where i heard about the cheese.
and the coloured voices in my head kept singing:

all i gotta do is put my ear to the wall
and i can hear it all, yes i can hear it all
all i gotta do is put my ear to the wall
and i can even hear the little insects crawl

there´s this super secret government program called
"operation the cheese stands alone"
it´s the congressmen´s pet project
they claim that they´re giving surplus cheese to the needy
i, of course, have my suspicions
after 15 very quiet minutes
the congressman´s cab pulled up outside a warehouse
i had the aries circle around the building and drop me off.
he seemed to be grasping the importance of my mission
since he said i didn´t have to pay him.
as long as i promised to stay very far away from him and his taxi.
i swear, some people just don´t want to get involved.

all i gotta do is put my ear to the wall
and i can hear it all, yes i can hear it all
all i gotta do is put my ear to the wall
and i can even hear the little insects crawl

so i walked into that cold dark place
little elvis drawn and ready for action
i too was ready -
ready for the moment when i would be a real american

all i gotta do is bang my head on the wall
and i can have it all, yes i can have it all
all i gotta do is bang my head on the wall
and i can even make the little insects crawl
