I saw the local cable company
They came and dug up the road
They cut the roots and killed the tree

To give me information overload
They laid an optical vein with a heart of glass
So the rich infuse, but the poor are bypassed


No need to qualify distinction
Of any other creature if alive or in extinction

Somebody gifted with a scanner and a keypad
Can rustle up an animal in cyberspace and time dad
Can it be really real as Takarazuka?

A message that is subtle as a kiss from a bazooka
Come into the water, don't be scared of a verruca
Erase that from your mind, the bottom line is filthy lucre


They're going to give you information
They want to put in formation

Is it a cause for celebration?
A non-creative recreation?
They're going to give you information

They want to put in formation
Is it a cause for celebration?
A non-creative recreation?


If you're virtually hungry, eat a virtual meal
If you're virtually sick, then do you virtually heal?

With a virtual brain, invent a virtual wheel
You're a virtual slave, but the kneeling is real


We're going for a swim in someone else's stream of consciousness and I hope that we don't drown...

A change of perception

Under pain of deception
Latest stab into modernity
Chew the flavour of eternity

How does anybody else feel?
Who can tell me what's the real deal?
Will the glove and goggle free you?

Or put your consciousness in curfew?

No need to answer any question

The mass of information giving mental indigestion
Somebody lacking Internet without a modem
Is waiting for the chance of overrating what you show them

Can it be as really real as waking in a fever?
Asleep inside a dream that's advertising Unilever?
Come into the universe of corporate dementia

Where everybody swaps their teeth for permanent indenture
