THE AUTOMATIC EARTH
(written 1999/recorded 2006)


why
do we try
to forget or deny
that the rules we comply
make us all live a lie

in the club
when we prance
automaton romance
as we move
when we dance
algo-rhythmical trance

are you free
turn to me
in your eyes i can see
quartz clock ticks
will i be
in the same slavery?

i got a conduct program
a lack of free will
machines set the cycle
and they'll never stand still
is it environmental
i mutate to chrome
becoming automatons
we now feel at home

human machinery
a robot industry
we grow into the automatic earth
and in a genuine silence
breaks mechanistic violence
we grow into the automatic earth
indifferent cyberslaves
in technocratic raves
we grow into the automatic earth
brains are superseded
hands no longer needed
we grow into the automatic earth

bolts agleam
all you've been
just a cog in the machine
now you're cloned
d'you feel mean
when homunculi yean?

you and me
he or she
estimate what we will be
last implants
are there three
between me and eternity

i got a conduct program
a lack of free will
machines set the cycle
and they'll never stand still
is it environmental
i mutate to chrome
becoming automatons
we now feel at home

human machinery
a robot industry
we grow into the automatic earth
and in a genuine silence
breaks mechanistic violence
we grow into the automatic earth
indifferent cyberslaves
in technocratic raves
we grow into the automatic earth
brains are superseded
hands no longer needed
we grow into the automatic earth
