[Verse 1]

Ooh, private lives, ooh

We only frame the pictures we want the world to see

We hide our true desires, unconsciously, mmm

And we pretend that

[Pre-Chorus]

Nobody's watching, nobody knows what's really going on

Except for the government, tabs on your internet and wires on your phone

Hidden inside of Alpha walls

For only your eyes to see

Is anything secret anymore?

Is anything just for me?

[Chorus]

Private lives (Deep inside, ooh)

Private lives (Deep inside)

It's only for your eyes

[Verse 2]

You won't let no one see your freaky side, free your mind

And just put down your vibe, yeah

No one will ever know what we never show

Outside our private lives, oh

[Pre-Chorus]

Nobody's watching, nobody knows what's really going on

Except for the government, tabs on your internet and wires on your phone

Hidden inside of Alpha walls

For only your eyes to see

Is anything secret anymore?

Is anything just for me?

[Chorus]

Private lives (Deep inside, ooh, hey hey)

Private lives (Deep inside)

It's only for your eyes

[Bridge]

(Deep inside, ah

Deep, deep, deep inside, ah)

You are free to do what you like

That is your right

And for you to be private

Unless we see fit to call it illicit

For how can we stop the global assailants

Without a global surveillance

There's always somebody responsible, someone who's culpable

Someone to blame for your broken dreams

We're just trying to save you

From those of a dark complexion, from averse in need of correction

From the lady in the hijab who's stealing your job

From the ones who won't comply, though we don't mean to pry

Inside, your private lives

[Chorus]

Private lives (Deep inside, ooh)

Private lives (Deep inside)

It's only for your eyes (Hey, it's just for you)

Private lives (Deep inside, ooh, it's only for your eyes)

Private lives (Deep inside)

It's only for your eyes (It's only for your eyes)

Ooh (Deep inside)

It's only for your eyes
