Inside Job Songtext
The main character
Won't come in from the cold
All the violence he's visited
It's riddled with rabbit holes
Push him off of the fourth wall
Before the conspiracy unfolds
Oh no

He says he tells it like it is
And you can't reason out
What wasn't reasoned in
He's a dramatic re-enactment
Of everything that never happened

Don't you need someone?
Your heart's a cover-up
You don't need anyone
Don't you need someone?
Your head's an inside job
You don't need anyone
Anyone

Now the main character
Delivers the monologue
He's Atlas with the flat earth
Folded neat under his arm
Leaping off of the balcony
Like just another Hollywood astronaut
Oh no
And he knows we're in on it
But he can't figure out how we figure in
All of his precious man hours spent
Splashing around in the shallow end

Don't you need someone?
Your heart's a cover-up
You don't need anyone
Don't you need someone?
Your head's an inside job
You don't need anyone
Anyone

Now we're in on it
Baby, we're in on it
Now we're in on it
Baby, we're in on it
Now we're in on it

Don't you need someone?
(Someone, someone...)
Don't you need someone?
(Someone, someone...)
Don't you need someone?
(Someone, someone...)
Don't you need someone?
(Someone, someone...)
