Sign up today
sign your life away
Send us your drivers license
So we know that you’re who you say
Get in touch with your friends
Don’t mind if we listen in
We know what’s best for you
You’re a part of our special plan
(chorus)
What are they doing
with all this stuff
Twenty thousand people in the building
And they just can’t get enough
What are they doing in there?
What do they do all day
All we know is what they tell us
All we know is what they say
(verse)
(They’ll tell you) We’ve got your back
You should really just relax
We can tell when you’re feeling down
We can tell when you’re out of whack
Our algorithms say
Looks like you’re feeling depressed
We recommend this therapist
This guy is really the best
(chorus)
What are they doing
What are they doing in there?
All they do is take from you
Why doesn’t anyone care?
What are they doing in there?
What do they do all day
All we know is what they tell us
All we know is what they say

Why do I always gotta wear my ID?
What can I do when twitter asks “Papers please?”
We’re gonna need your phone and your home and your Mother’s name
We’re gonna need to plug this thing into your brain!
Big Data - Gonna plug you in
Big Data - When would you like me to ask again
Why do I always gotta wear my ID?
What can I do when twitter asks “Papers please?”
We’re gonna need your phone and your home and your Mother’s name
We’re gonna need to plug this thing into your brain!
Big Data - Gonna plug you in
Big Data - I'm not gonna to ask again

External memory in your pocket all the time
External memory remotely read your mind
External memory in your pocket all the time
External memory remotely read your mind
I don’t remember anything I know
can’t remember what I do - can’t remember where I go
I don’t remember anything I’ve seen
But I don’t have to now, I’ve got it all right here for me

Gonna have a bright future and there’s nothing you can do
If you try and stop it all the world will come down on you
Artificial stupidity - a machine makes all my meals for me
Artificial stupidity - gotta be all that you can be
We’re heading for utopia - full speed ahead
If you got a problem well you might just wind up dead
Artificial stupidity - a robot watches my kids for me
Artificial stupidity - it really means the world to me
Artificial stupidity - a machine raised my kids for me
Artificial stupidity - it really means the world to me

Flip the switch
Plug it in
The lights come
And then the magic can begin
Flip the switch
Plug it in
The lights come
So the magic can begin
I don’t need a machine to watch me
I don’t need to have a robot mommy
Flip the switch
Plug it in
The eyes will open up
And then the magic can begin
Flip the switch
Plug it in
The eyes will open up
So the magic can begin
I don’t need a machine to watch me
When the kill switch flips - just wait and see
I don’t wanna have this robot watching me
What happens when they flip the switch? Just wait and see

Blue light
Blue light
Drawn into it like a bug lamp in the night
Thank the CIA for LEDs
Regulate your brains chemistry
Shine the blue light in your eyes
Kiss all ur melatonin goodbye
What does it do? What does it do to you?
It’ll mess up your heartbeat, give you diabetes too
It’ll make u depressed, it’ll give you cancer
No one’s ever gonna have to answer for
Blue light
Blue light

Who's in Control?

Time really flies
As the days go by
With every year that comes and goes
I can’t believ e my eyes
It’s a brave new world
Of blood and machine
It’s a brave new world
Like nothing you’ve ever dreamed
(nothing you’ve ever dreamed)
Who’s in control?
I don’t want to go
Who’s in control?
I don’t want to go
(solo)
Who’s in control?
I don’t want to go
Who’s in control?
I don’t want to go
We gotta know
We gotta know
We gotta know
Who’s in control?
Who’s in control?
Who’s in control?
I don’t want to go
Who’s in control?
I don’t want to go
