[Verse 1]
Watch what you say, don’t use the wrong word
That spell you cast, don’t let it be your last
Don’t wanna get tapped for improper use of magic
This decree in place, is it really reasonable?

[Chorus]
Cause you got the Trace, the Taboo
They’re always watching you
What are they looking for, why are they listening?
I guess privacy’s not a wizard thing
What are they looking for, why are they listening?
Why they worried so much about wizard teens?

[Verse 2]
In times of peace, it seems like overreach
And opens the door to misuse in times of war
If you say his name, it puts you on the map
So be ready to fight, or else you might get snatched

[Chorus]
Cause you got the Trace, the Taboo
They’re always watching you
I know what they’re looking for, I know why they’re listening
Breeding fear and mistrust is part of their thing
I know what they’re looking for, I know why they’re listening
It’s a police state meant to subjugate
[Outro]
We know what they’re looking for
We know why they’re listening
We know what they’re looking for
We know why they’re listening
We know what they’re looking for
We know why they’re listening
We know what they’re looking for
Maybe someday we’ll fix this thing
