lyrics

I saw the dry rice bulge on the etiquette line,
praised needs taken
I felt the humourless human-bot
bomb through the doorway, then make it seem like no one listened
to their finer progressions,
made in small instalments
cute, almost like the modern mable does it,
automatic lean to check the baby crying,
voltage matching your current position

not enough people were watching me burn
through every choice I made
now I keep attention by serving up-and-coming polls
to friends who like debating everything

and I press my morning button-down now
to de-crease it
stand by the window seat with me
but don't follow my lead

I'm heading into nature but not totally
more like shirking city thoughts
while waiting on the bus
I got a job, it keeps me concerned
that I'll work too hard
and I'll lose the nerve you wanna learn
man, that'd be a wrong turn
torn litter-paper wrestles the bin
but that's where it belongs
the place that it is in, so stop it
scan down my outfit, closing the door
smooth operator of the working force

(plain news heaves from the traffic-warm sides
of the route I'm taking
and something told me to beam at the girl
close to the subway staircase entrance instead of distancing
her and all the people
I'm watching them while they're turning
into the daily dust
same as most did before us
could this way be a thing I trust,
never knowing where it came from?)
