Young, Neil - We R In Control Lyrics






We control the data banks
We control the think tanks
We control the flow of air.

We're controlling traffic lights
We control computer flights
We control the chief of staff.

We control the TV sky
We control the FBI
We control the flow of heat.

Computer age in harm's way.
We will prevail
and perform our function
C.C.T.B.

We're controlling
We're controlling
We control.
We're controlling
We control.
We control.

We control you floor to floor
We control you door to door
We're controlling
while you sleep

Computer age in harm's way.
We will prevail
and perform our function
C.C.T.B.

Computer age in harm's way.
We will prevail
and perform our function
C.C.T.B.

We are in control,
we are in control,
we are in control.
We are in control,
we are in control,
we are in control.
We are in control,
we are in control,
we are in control.
We are in control,
we are in control,
we are in control.

Chemical computer
thinking battery.

  1. M.... C....

  2. D.... K....

    This is hitting the spot right now

  3. B.... H....

    We control your society, we can make , you cry. We are in control! Yeah, we are in control yeah

  4. D.... B....

    When I was an up-and-coming computer programmer we used to blast this album and Kraftwerk (not to mention lots of DEVO) while we cranked out the code. Drove all the staff nuts! BUT WE WERE IN CONTROL!

    D.... B....

    =K R A F T W E R K=

  5. t.... 8....

    1.25x speed and it’s a Devo song!!

  6. k.... ....

    Dat Riff

  7. D.... ....

    I actually love the guitar riffs in this song, both the one at 0:05 that repeats a few times in the first half, then the chord at 1:56, and then that moody line that kicks in at 2:00. They are pretty awesome! Plus, the Pacman samples are cool! 😂😂

  8. T.... K....

    Very cool...

  9. B.... H....

    Love this song its so true!

  10. B.... H....

    Way ahead of its time! Pure art!

  11. a.... s....

    Wow, first (and maybe the one and ever only) comment. Just like 'We are the robots' by Kraftwerk! Like Daft Punk, too!

    a.... s....

    Neil Young was heavily influenced by Devo, a band he was friend with (watch Human Highway). "We R In Control" reminds me a lot of "Peek A Boo"...

    a.... s....

    @Frank Reich they also gave him the idea to name his album Rust Never Sleeps

    a.... s....

    @Patrick Fagan That's Rad!

    a.... s....

    @Frank Reich Gnarly! No wonder I dig Devo so much!

    a.... s....

    @Ryan Page Yep! Totally cool!
