The Streets Have Eyes Lyrics

They're, they're...

Watching from Panopticon, the streets have eyes, the children of the sun
Media manipulator medicate, sedate, educate ya
"Receiver, tell us what went wrong."
Message scrambled, live transgression
"Receiver, this is an order, tell us what went wrong!"
Message scrambled, live transgression
"This is highly unorthodox activity
Would all personnel please report to your workstations."
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression

Working for Panopticon, the children of the sun get along
Yeah, they’re the great homogeniser, waiting for you, looking for you
"Receiver, tell us what went wrong."
Message scrambled, live transgression
"Receiver, this is an order, tell us what went wrong!"
Message scrambled, live transgression
"This is highly unorthodox activity
Would all personnel please report to your workstations."
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression

"Regenerating Panopticon, please hold."

"This is highly unorthodox activity
Would all personnel please report to your workstations."
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression

They're, they're...

Watching from Panopticon, the streets have eyes, the children of the sun
Media manipulator medicate, sedate, educate ya
"Receiver, tell us what went wrong."
Message scrambled, live transgression
"Receiver, this is an order, tell us what went wrong!" 
Message scrambled, live transgression
"This is highly unorthodox activity 
Would all personnel please report to your workstations."
We don’t care, live transgression 
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression

"Regenerating Panopticon, please hold."

"This is highly unorthodox activity
Would all personnel please report to your workstations."
We don’t care, live transgression 
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression
We don’t care, live transgression

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
