lyrics

Conditions are favourable to some, under the atmospheric dome.
Daily team briefings are scheduled for the next one hundred years.

A murderous biotech claw lifts the prize from the box.
We watch it, gobs wide open in dismay,
Powerless to do anything except gawp at the screen,
Disabled, muted, neutralised, neutered.

Your life is now one singular debit payment,
Wired direct to the accounts of those who pull levers,
Those who push buttons.

Hyenas in flak jackets patrol the streets,
Mopping up the socially excluded.
They take their orders from the regional manager.
No point in appealing to lost liberal causes.
No point in doing anything.
Just stare at that screen,
Lost in someone else’s childhood memories.

Eat your Corporation Pizza, citizen.
Yes, the base is dry.
Yes, the topping is sparse.
Drink your Corporation Gin, citizen.
The taste is bitter.
You’ll find it to your liking.

The siren has sounded:
Underground, ye infidels!
Condemned to play online Scrabble for the rest of the fucking year.
Contact is limited to staccato sentences of profound triviality,
Typed out in anxious runes by bony fingers
Belonging to no-one in particular.

The Corporation does not recognise your face.
Your credit has been frozen.
You crawl into an abandoned shopping trolley
And disappear.

“Didn’t you see it coming,” says the freeze-dried Messiah,
“The day when we all shall live alone?”
