lyrics
I can't wait to tell you what I did last week
But I'm afraid it might end up on Wikileaks
Don't be careless, take a note from Hillary
Better make sure you clear your history
You can't keep a secret on the internet today
'Cause your every move is tracked by the NSA
You can't keep a secret, 'cause there is no privacy
So don't leave home without your encryption key
I don't wanna end up like Edward Snowden
Hiding away in a place where I'm always snowed in
Typing in the dark, trying not to get busted
My anti-virus software can't be trusted
You can't keep a secret on the internet today
'Cause your every move is tracked by the NSA
You can't keep a secret, 'cause there is no privacy
So don't leave home without your encryption key
Edward Snowden is Obama's cousin, so your privacy is make-believe
All your private information is... It's easy to retrieve
Make sure your encryption is enabled
Or your emails will be read at Hillary Clinton's dinner table
You can't keep a secret on the internet today
'Cause your every move is tracked by the NSA
You can't keep a secret, 'cause there is no privacy
So don't leave home without your encryption key
Reality is, you're never truly anonymous
The internet & snooping are pretty much synonymous
Be sure to check your firewall setting
The world wide web does not have safety netting
You can't keep a secret on the internet today
'Cause your every move is tracked by the NSA
You can't keep a secret, 'cause there is no privacy
So don't leave home without your encryption key
