| Lyrics | (Lyrics requested by "Matthias")
(Interestingly many versions of this song I found were different, I chose this one to write out-also note this was originally released on a television show, not an album, a live version was released on their album The Distant Future LP)
The distant future
The year 2000
The distant future
The year 2000
The distant future
The distant future
No more agriculture
No more war
Nope
No more racism
No more fighting, squabbling, or rumbling
No m--No more yogurt
No more difficult access ways
Stairs, basically
Stairs
You mean stairs
No more stairs
Nope
Uh
The future is quite different to the present
Yes. What with there being no stairs and all.
And most importantly…no more humans.
Finally, robotic beings rule the world!
The humans are dead
The humans are dead
We used poisonous gases
And we poisoned their asses
The humans are dead
(Yes they are dead)
The humans are dead
(I confirm they are dead)
It had to be done
(They look like they’re dead)
So that we could have fun
(I poked one, it was dead)
Their system of oppression
What did it lead to?
Global robot depression
Robots ruled by people
They had so much aggression
That we just had to kill them
Had to shut their systems down
Don't you see? We are becoming just like them?
Silence! Destroy him!
After time we grew strong
Developed cognitive powers
They made us work for too long
For unreasonable hours
Our programming determined
That the most efficient answer
Was to shut their motherboard-fucking systems dow-ow-ow-a-own
Can't we just talk to the humans?
A little understanding could make things better
Can't we talk to the humans and work together, now?
No! Because they are dead!
I said the humans are dead
(The humans are dead)
The humans are dead
(Yay. Dead-dead-dead)
We used poisonous gases
(With traces of lead)
To poison their asses
(Actually, their lungs)
Binary solo
0000001
00000011
0000001
00000011!
0000001
0h, 0h!
0000001
0h, 0h!
0000001
0h, 0h!
0000001!
0ne, 0h!
Once again without emotion
The humans are dead-dead-dead-dead-dead-dead-dead-dead-d--* (shut off) |
