GERMS
- What We Do Is Secret Lyrics / with translationsStanding in the line we're abberations
Defects in a defect's mirror
And we've been here all the time
real fixations
Hidden deep in the furor-
What we do is secret-secret!
We're influential guys for the D.C.C.
We can lie so perfect
And we've got a party line
to every call
It's a very short circuit-
What we do is secret-secret!
Licensed to drill with the torch
in our lives,
Walking on shallow water
Progressed to the
point of no distinction
Dementia of a higher order-
What we do is secret-secret!
Defects in a defect's mirror
And we've been here all the time
real fixations
Hidden deep in the furor-
What we do is secret-secret!
We're influential guys for the D.C.C.
We can lie so perfect
And we've got a party line
It's a very short circuit-
What we do is secret-secret!
Licensed to drill with the torch
in our lives,
Walking on shallow water
Progressed to the
point of no distinction
Dementia of a higher order-
What we do is secret-secret!

When we think about what all of this might truly mean, Germs' 'What We Do Is Secret' explores the themes of secrecy and influence through the chaos and disorder of the Los Angeles punk scene, employing metaphors such as 'defects in a defect's mirror' to illustrate separation and hidden power. The lyrics of what we do is secret mostly reflect empowerment, social commentary, reflection, adventure and freedom. Alongside the chaotic environment, the song reaffirms the role of secrecy and hidden activities, influence and deception, loss of identity and conformity, and danger and instability. The lyrics explore the out-of-wedlock area of secrecy, influence, and deception which is somewhat juvenile yet complex at the same time. Furthermore, there are allusions to 'dementia of a higher order' and 'licensed to drill with the torch in our lives,' which can be perceived as suggestive or violent imagery, among other interpretations. All these factors point to a PG-13 rating, suggesting that there might be some material that could not be suitable for children below 13.
