Republika - Equals

We get up at the hour XT
leaving in bedrooms our equal dreams
today the washing programme number six
the central equalizer's given me

equal shoes and equal teeth and a nose
equal enthusiastic feelings and thoughts
with the same paint we keep painting grey
banners telling us to be quite the same

if you are pretty that is really too bad
the central equalizer will alter that
if you are fat then surely you've got to have
a bunch of red and green balloons in each hand

equal shoes and equal teeth and a nose
equal enthusiastic feelings and thoughts
with the same paint we keep painting grey
banners telling us to be the same
be the same
be the same

all those unequal don't want to be the same
they want to smell nice want to be fat and gay
the central equalizer will pick them out
and right away we'll catch them all and apply

equal shoes and equal teeth and a nose
equal enthusiastic feelings and thoughts
with the same paint we will equalize them
for the banner says be the same
say be the same
say be the same.
be equal be equal be equal.
