The talking heads they make no sense
That they can’t turn to dollars or more followers
More likes and shares
To keep us unaware
Of anything except the pretty pictures.
They give em words now and call em “memes”
And they’ll say all the things we could ever mean
I’ll share this one to prove I believe
And just like if you agree

All these graphics and lights flashin’ give me spasms
I keep grabbin’ for the truth but
Comin’ up with bruises
I’ve got nothing left to prove if all I can conclude is
that the colors are amusing,
and the graphics just keep on improving

They’ll be talking about how the aftermath is so damned tragic
While spinning around some dumbass graphics
Causing panic among dramatic masses
Not that any of that bullshit matters
They took up sides and came to find
That it takes time and an open mind to truly understand,
And man, it’s easy to deceive em,
If you just make em believe in
All the pixels that you scatter

All these graphics and lights flashin’ give me spasms
I keep grabbin’ for the truth but
Comin’ up with bruises
I’ve got nothing left to prove if all I can conclude is
that the colors are amusing,
and the graphics just keep on improving

They got filters for days
And so many ways to take out the lovely
And replace it with nothing
But something impossible to achieve

And you can’t filter ugly from a heart
It’s pronounced gif
it’s not pronounced not jiff
And that’s just one way
That they create these rifts
See it’s all about
The ball of doubt
In all of us out here
And it’s clear that with it we’re
So easily molded
And we’re eagerly beholden
To the symbols we share
And the pictures we care about
As long as they don’t allow
Alternate perspectives
To the arguments erected
(Whoa, that’s a big erection)
And it’s the one we’ll be lettin’ em use to
Infect us come the next election
We’ll be the bottom and they’ll be the top
And we’ll just keep talking about that gigantic cock
It’s all just codependent pillow talk

Wake up and take up a cause (not a symbol or picture or a mixture of those)
Take up a cause
We don’t have to be to belong (so advocate)
It’s time to wake up
And time to take up….a cause

And you can’t filter ulgy from a heart
It’s pronounced gif
it’s not pronounced not jiff
And that’s just one way
That they create these rifts
See it’s all about
The ball of doubt
In all of us out here
And it’s clear that with it we’re
So easily molded
And we’re eagerly beholden
To the symbols we share
And the pictures we care about
As long as they don’t allow
Alternate perspectives
To the arguments erected
(Whoa, that’s a big erection)
And it’s the one we’ll be lettin’ em use to
Infect us come the next election
We’ll be the bottom and they’ll be the top
And we’ll just keep talking about that gigantic cock
It’s all just codependent pillow talk

Wake up and take up a cause (not a symbol or picture or a mixture of those)
Take up a cause
We don’t have to be to belong (so advocate)
It’s time to wake up
And time to take up….a cause
