Get the chip in you

One day you'll be replaced by a machine
evolution is eating it's tail
One day we'll be devoid of purpose
and an outside force will force us

Twice as conventional
no opinion, initiative or personal thoughts
You just cheer, cheer and wave a flag
you'll be replaced by a robot one day

because you have nothing to say
nowhere to go
No special idea
just the obligation to exist

You, you lovely lab rat
you passive soccer fan
We could put wires into you
buttons on your chest

But what's the point?
You are predictable and lazy
malleable and easy to manipulate
I want 200 million of you

Buy when I say buy
sell when I say sell
don't state the obvious
not even the subtle

Clones and androids may disobey
but you lovely trend sheepers keep trotting
eyes on the tail in front of you
You repeat popular idioms and cusswords

A cardboard box of bad habits
Go along with whatever's kicking
freethinkers make you sick
Wave your flag and bleat your banter

believe in the holy ghost, voodoo and santa
That somehow the developed world deserves it more than you
Spend your time on your knees in pews
In disorderly and impossible office queues

Your thoughts and habits long play discs
round and round you go
Buy the new cellphone
Brand dependent

Sell your right to think for a loss
Buy the powder and brainwash yourself at home
And act without questioning
You the elegant drones
