about

Written in 2011 or so, before all this was normalized.

lyrics

There's a shiny rectangle beside the bed
And in the morning await instructions
There's a brand newfangle inside your head
Set for automatic deduction

Personal data been strip mined
It's a bit of a trade-off but I don't mind
Sure could use a day off, I will survive
Just a temporary player, but I got mine

Stood in line all day for the next big thing
Skipping life today, you know it's so enticing

Try to keep up the pace and go obsolete
Tied to time and space you know we're never free
Oh what we used to be, oh it was SUCH A SCREAM
Standing on the brink and I like what I see

I learned my lines today, they flowed across the screen
I played my part today, an extra in the American dream
You know it's not too late to just hit delete
Almost D.O.A. get a new D.O.B.
