Put pen to the check to sign
For digitized insecticide
Where pain and disdain is publicized
and privacy is a puppets lie
Force fed man’s new best friend
no chance, you won’t repent
Endorse the master, don’t comprehend
Sober and willing to over extend
The universe will lose to Kipple
The garbage overtakes us all
The is no climbing from the fall
Discard the brain, the mind is feeble
Lamenting Schizophrenia
in a voiceless new millennia
Bridge:
Nobody goes to space anymore
The rovers on mars are hubs for internet shopping
New stock catalogs replacing soft core porno
Posting pictures to the web of exit wounds in their torso
Chorus:
So eat, drink, and be Marion Barry
and when shit gets hairy, know tomorrow we all die
And when in doubt just buy, buy, buy
to fill the void in your heart as you reach for the sky
It’s like this, it’s the end of the world
You get a lotta people lost as the branches unfurl
Your Facebook friends won’t be next to your bed,
I hear there’s really shitty wifi six feet under the world
Verse:
Connect to gain effect
Eyes pry, denied request
Credit limit you can not cheat
But still get lost in the double speak
Big brother’s a three in card
No Love Culture is avant garde
Steve Job’s splitting atoms and Eves
iTunes killed the record sleeve
Save face and write off as parti pris
It’s time to bid the drug adieu
I’m pulling out the feeding tube
At night we type, we sit here lifeless
There’s so much more these hands can do
So what the hell is stopping you?
Bridge:
Swipe the plastic, it’ll be okay
we’ll all live to buy another day
and the iPhone 2000 is what’s up next
to stoked to notice the neighbor bleeding out on your doorstep
