I see that you don't see me
I watch you when you're eating
Fried food in front of famous buildings
I know a lot of things about you

And sometimes I am Pharaoh
And sometimes I am Chaplin
Sometimes I'm made of stone
But always I am watching

You walk into the Cathedral
Hoping that you will feel something
But all you feel is empty
So you think that you are hungry
That's why you're always eating
Fried food in front of famous buildings
And always I am watching
Although you never see me

And sometimes I am Pharaoh
And sometimes I am Chaplin
Sometimes I'm made of stone
But always I am watching

I sat next to a woman
Who asked if God was like a camera
That automatically took a picture
If you said you were a sinner
She took a photo of the altar
Although she knew it was forbidden
Now she was frightened of damnation
I said "Why don't you repent then?"
And then she started crying

I was standing very still
In front of famous buildings
The crowds began to father
Clouds began to gather
Not moving one muscle
Oh, I stand still for hours
And then when you least expect it
Sudddenly, I

Jump!
I'll make you jump
I'll make you jump
I'll make you jump

Underneath the arches
Down by the river
At the center of the world
Throwing food into an abyss

And sometimes I am Pharaoh
And sometimes I am Chaplin
Sometimes I'm made of stone
But always I am watching
Watching, watching

I'll make you jump
I'll make you jump
I'll make you jump
I'll make you jump
I'll make you jump
