about

What began as a short experimental loop with homemade sampled drum sounds turned into a big synth pop fest.

lyrics

They build their castle walls
And bleed you till you're dry
If they answered all your calls
They'd never tell you why
And when they play the spinning wheels
And take what they can grab
After they collect their fee
We all pick up the tab

Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind

And when the big guns come to play
And take you for a ride
Do you mind if they hide?
And when they tell you where to go
And what to do and say
Do you mind if they stay?

Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind

The stars shine from the stage
Telling us to dig in deep
While they're folding up their wage
They're singing you to sleep
They can buy and sell your time
Or cash in your worldly goods
Or keeping their feet dry
Between the droughts and floods

Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind

And when the headlines say to jump
Or we won't be part of the gang
Do you mind that they can
And when the big suits clear you out
With their pockets sinking deep
Do you mind how they sleep

Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind

Stringing up our limbs
Like we're office puppet toys
Working hard to tell the world
That they care for girls and boys
And they can cover up their ears
If you decide to make a noise

And when the big guns come to play
And take you for a ride
Do you mind if they hide
And when they tell you where to go
And what to do and say
Do you mind if they stay
And when the headlines to jump
Or we won't be part of the gang
Do you mind how they can
And when the big suits clear you out
With their pockets sinking deep
Do you mind how they sleep

Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind
Do you mind, do, do you mind
