Gave my job to some robot
Man, I don't need it and he don't mind
He never ask for a day off,
he don't need no sleep,
he do overtime
If you'd ask me
I'd say "What's there not to like?"
Cuz we got this thing called "hindsight"
All through history
we built us these machines
so we could have us a little luxury
So why quit while we're at it?
Betcha even this open letter
some robot could've written better
Spill them beans all over me
Why would you rather side with your own poverty?
Might there be something you are hiding?
Ulterior motives to act miserly?
"That's quite the opinion you got there,
mind to water it down for me?
Let's getcha off that milk crate, son,
cuz we can't have none of that talk around here.
There's targets to be made
and I'll be damned if we don't ship
the required amount of fake puke
pencil toppers and ties with kittens on 'em."
Let's get this over with now
cuz we've been done with it for a while
You're offering what we can do without
And if you'd ask me
Id say employment should be a necessity
much rather than a virtue
But I bet you'd take that as indifference
now, won't you?
Becuz I gave my job to some robot
Man, I don't need it and he don't mind
He never ask for a raise,
he do not unionize
Free will is a burden
but not to this guy
And the best part:
after a hard day's work
you can fuck him in all of his ports
He don't care, you see?
He don't care when you fuck him
in his cute lil robot pussy
So let's get this over with now
Cuz we've been done with this for a while

Leave by
Sour grapes
Rat's and snakes
I live by
I live by
Acid in open cheeks
I live by
I live by
With open arms and eyes closed
You can't fool whoever it is you're talking to
Caught ya wishing it'd be just a tiny bit easier
but you know how it be by now
Comfort come with a steady dose of slavery
That may be, but we could sure do without
Out
Down & Out
Down & Out
Down
Didn't ya say you were the last of them?
No complaints
Open wake
I leave by
I leave by
(For you and yours, don't leave another man's dream-up to clean-up)
Ascertain
We all might die here in vain
I leave by
I leave by
(Hold hand to feel safe, open them to break free)
We're a faded carbon copy of a man without a face
He don't know your name
All created in the image of what we've never seen
By design we're incomplete
(Learn the language of vulnerability. They will understand)
All things considered, don't nobody like to visit
when you're sick, without wearing some kind of gown
Everybody act a doctor, but none got the cure
Y'all can leave and lemme stay down
Down,
Down, Down
Down, Down
Down
Didn't ya say you were the last of them?
This death might not be in vain
(Not on my watch, not anymore, you're not)
I recall you saying you was ready for a truth this loud
That, if we're bound to get fucked in the ass, then we might as well lay down
Down
Down, Down
Down, Down
Down
Didn't ya say you were the last?
Not anymore, you're not
Never alone
You're never alone
