ONE MINUTE WORLD
01:00
|
|||
One minute boys and one minute girls
With their one minute toys in a one minute world
60 seconds get your attention and did I mention
My apprehension to this dimension
They try to lessen the tension
By clenching the essence
Of pragmatic frantic panic
Thru the transatlantic
While I vanquish any sense of self into anguish
Into language into sadness no limit
In just one minute
One minute boys and one minute girls
With their one minute toys in a one minute world

I exist I exist I exist
I exist I exist
I exist
I exist
I exist I exist I exist
I exist I exist
With a click of a pic and I exist
In case you missed it reposted it to Linkedin
Now I’m doing this and I’m doing that with
With a whole bunch of cats
They’re all so cool
It’s like I’m always in high school
Forever what could be any better
The yearbook infinity
It’s like a holy trinity
Of emptiness
Of meaninglessness
Of screaming I exist
Fuck YouTube
I’m on me tube
You don’t exist unless they see you
Your fake life and try to be you
I exist I exist I exist
I exist I exist
I exist

Everybody just freeze ice out
Click a pic and say cheese right now
Pick a filter like a hipster and I crop out
What a knock out post it to my profile
Everybody just freeze ice out
Click a pic and say cheese right now
Pick a filter like a hipster and I crop out
What a knock out post it to my profile
Flash like you’re popular
Cast in an opera
Cash out the ass while you laugh in another world
Stash all these hash tags in a glass bag
Dreams on the screens from our ancestors
Little bit of likes in the middle of the night
Gets me feeling alright and I think that I might
Be a real human
Bask in gloom
In an unkempt room to the glow of my iPhone
Everybody just freeze ice out
Click a pic and say cheese right now
Pick a filter like a hipster and I crop out
What a knock out post it to my profile

KIDDING

Look at my kid y’all look at my kid y’all look at my kid y’all
Look at this sandwich
Gonna need a whole lot a bandwidth
for my phone to even start to handle it
Look at my kid y’all look at my kid y’all look at my kid y’all
Look at this sandwich
Gonna need a whole lot a bandwidth
for my phone to even start to handle it
Look I took a pic
Look I took a vid
Look I took a shit
Took a look of a book that I never read
Life I never led on my profile
Everybody just wanna go wild
Smiling profiling dividing the time in to lives that are lies
Ya I ate breakfast
Ya I bought a necklace
Ya my kid is an object
Ya are there any lines left to cross left
Look at my kid y’all look at my kid y’all look at my kid y’all
Look at this sandwich
Gonna need a whole lot a bandwidth
for my phone to even start to handle it

Does she like me?
Does he like me?
Do they like me?
Do we like me?
Does she like me?
Does he like me?
Do they like me?
Do we like me?
Got an Infinite need for approval
Make sure you tag me for you post it to the tube yo
Host it and drool yo
Boast with the best of them
Got to get down with the cool kids and lesbians
Gender is a currency
Rejections of identity
We’re living in hypocrisy
Status popularity
Hilarity ensues
Bad Jew’s on the mic again
‘for you put down the phone
Make sure you hit the like again
Does she like me?
Does he like me?
Do they like me?
Do we like me?
Does she like me?
Does he like me?
Do they like me?
Do we like me?

Data mine your mind what would we find?
Data mine your mind what would we find?
Data mine your mind what would we find?
Data mine your mind what would we find?
Shopping habits porno traffic
Blood sugar sex magic
Finger prints and trips to clinics
Stealing SSI digits
All while denying coverage
Every click and we love love it
Even when we’re not clicking
Where you move when you’re shitting
Face ID and what you need
All sold to the highest fee
When we dream when we cream
When we’re running out of steam
When we seem to be not what we seem
When we scheme when we bleed
When we cheat when eat
When were at our most weak
Tracking and trafficking who we really are
We’re the last to know while we buy it all
Data mine your mind what would we find?

HACKING

Wake up in the morning
That’s a life hack
Go to sleep in the evening
That’s a life hack
Three meals that’s feeding
That’s a life hack
Grab a book that’s reading
That’s a life hack
Coworkers in a meeting
That’s a life hack
Oxygen that’s breathing
That’s a life hack
Use the restroom when you need it
That’s a life hack
Sweet dreams when you’re sleeping
That’s a life hack
Brush your teeth do cleaning
That’s a life hack
Play fair no cheating
That’s a life hack
Be nice like you mean it
That’s a life hack
Replace life with cyber meanings
That’s a life hack
Gamify your whole being
That’s a life hack
Existence is fleeting
That’s a life hack
Impermanence is teaching
That’s a life hack
The powers keep on scheming
That’s a life hack
Be quiet eat your greens

Changing the shape of our spines
Necks staying down all the time
Changing the shape of our spines
Necks staying down all the time
Changing the shape of our minds
Praying to gods of our times
Changing the place of our ties
Fate of a race in decline
Changing the shape of our spines
Necks staying down all the time

Waking up and taking up
These feelings aren’t fake enough
Shaking off the expectations of a nation inundated with the hatred spewing
While we’re posting what we’re doing
In the best light just right
On your preferred device
We just might succumb to the fright
Of being present for a second
Have a human connection
In person with a person
What could be worse than?
Got all the friends I need in this rectangle of light
Say my prayers to my little god
Nod off goodnight
See you on the flip side
Rip tide slip slide
Second life third eye
Spiritual suicide
Gone Goodby
