[Verse 1]
Stay away from the future
Back away from the light
It's all deranged - no control
Sit tight in your corner
Don't tell God your plans

No control
[Verse 2]

If I can't control

[Verse 3]
Every single move's uncertain
Don't tell God your plans
It's all deranged
No control

In the world of today, for tomorrow's man
[Bridge]
No control
Stay away from the future
Don't tell God your plans
It's all deranged

In the world of today, for tomorrow's man

If I can't control my destiny
No control
I can't believe I've no control
It's all deranged
[Outro]
I can't believe I've no control
It's all deranged
Deranged
Deranged
