A nine digit number

For every living soul

That is all they talk about

At data control

They know everything about you

Keeping secrets is too hard

Your life is all recorded for you

In holes punched in computer cards



Data control (digital readout)

Data control (perforated feedout)

Data control (microfilm files)

Data control (1984 style)



A multinational corporation

A stockholder's dream

A nightmare of diversity

A defense system so supreme

Too technical to talk about

Too complex for layman's brains

It's enough to make you paranoid

Or drive you crazy losers sane
