Digital Police
03:22
|

|
they’re bugging me
i’ve got no privacy
and everywhere i go
they record everything
please stop it
tell them this is absurd
can’t even read a book
without digital words
there is no end
the cloud obstructs the light
grower larger and larger
with no end in sight
can’t even sleep in peace
without their eyes on me
always scanning and checking
and scanning and checking
there's no escaping
just record-taking
theres no refrain
only the mainframe
the wires strangle me
and then they all dissolve
they say it's just a figment
and that it's been resolved
constantly updating
never turning back
soon we won’t need to walk
just watch our pets do that
they want our insights
they want our pleasures
feed the machine
translate them into numbers
i don’t think so
i won’t acquiesce
i will hide all my thoughts
and keep them close to my chest
there's no escaping
just record-taking
there's no refrain
only the mainframe

Dead Eyes
03:12

|
every time, i look into the faces
the eyes are dead, the eyes are dead
every step is a little bit closer
to the green baby, the greed baby
everybody, is a body
just waiting to pretend
to the very end
and all the money
will eat you alive
and all the green in this world
will still be around when you die
and all the money baby
will eat you alive
and all the greed in this world
will make you cry
i dont wanna pretend
anymore

Future
04:04
|

|
some days fade away
others blossom like a great bouquet
and theres nothing to say
but okay
some ways are far too strange
better to feel them then try to change
can’t put it into words
but at least you heard
we all want the future 'cuz the present don't matter
tired of the same day try to rush it away
now is the only time that really ever matters
take a breath
if time keeps moving
and i keep dreaming
eventually, it will be
what is the future anyway?
what is the future any way?
we all want the future 'cuz the present don't matter
tired of the same day try to rush it away
now is the only time that really ever matters
take a breath
right here
right now
right here
right now
i took a walk down the street
picked up some eggs and other food to eat
was feeling good nature's satisfied
and then i felt dead inside

Mighty Dollar

everything is monochrome
my fingers are sticky and i’m all alone
but i can’t get enough i swear
i’m in love with the smell of it
(mighty mighty dollar)
the moment i laid eyes on you
all my idols crumbled
i need some more
i need a fix
i need to get my hands on it
i can taste it
nothing in this world can compare
not the water or the air
oh no
the mighty dollar is all that i can see
someone please come set me free
i get so sticky
from bein around all this money
mighty mighty dollar
everything is monochrome
i’m losing my senses and i’m all alone
i wish you had a number i'd look you up
and dial it until my fingers gave up
oh yeah
my world is created in your image
i can’t stop staring what an honor
and a privilege
you give me more and more and all i do is take
if only you knew how much it makes my heart break
i can’t bare to share you
no-one else understands your magnitude
i get so sticky
from being around all this money
mighty mighty dollar
and everywhere i go
and everywhere i go
and everywhere i go...
that mighty mighty dollar
the mighty dollar is all that i can see
someone please come set me free
i get so sticky
from bein around all this money
mighty mighty dollar
set me free
someone please come
set me free
i get so sticky
mighty mighty dollar
has got a grip on me
i get so sticky
someone come and save me
save me
