Control - Some Velvet Morning

I know you don’t believe him

What he says or where he goes

You say you think of leaving

But you don’t and I don’t understand

Why you stay, could someone explain

Ooh, how it’s all about control

Ooh, what you see or what you’re told

Ooh, yes the key is he who holds

Ooh, control

The story needs containing

A policy of need to know

It’s the one way to remain king

And not go the way of the guillotine

Become history like Louis XVI

Ooh, yes it’s all about control

Ooh, what gets seen or what gets told

Ooh, yes the key is he who holds

Ooh, control

You say you think of leaving, so let go

Why you stay could someone explain

Ooh, how it’s all about control

Ooh, what gets seen or what gets told

Ooh, yes the key is he who holds

Ooh, control.
