NROL-39 is represented by the octopus, a versatile, adaptable, and highly intelligent creature.
It is also spineless
In your face irony. Gotta love it.
I must adamit - I have not heard of the NRO. I wiki’d it. Small Agency.

3,000 employees. $10 Billion budget.
So why this NRO?
Isn’t this what the CIA and NSA are for?
And we used to joke about all your base belong to us. So quaint....

Electric Eye - Judas Priest
Up here in space
I’m looking down on you
My lasers trace
Everything you do
You think you’ve private lives
Think nothing of the kind
There is no true escape
I’m watching all the time
I’m made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
I’m elected electric spy
I’m protected electric eye
Always in focus
You can’t feel my stare
I zoom into you
You don’t know I’m there
I take a pride in probing all your secret moves
My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove
I’m made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
Electric eye, in the sky
Feel my stare, always there
There’s nothing you can do about it
Develop and expose
I feed upon your every thought
And so my power grows
I’m made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
Protected. Detective. Electric eye
