Old Song Revisited

Everything you had was everything I ever wanted
Even after you pissed on everything, I wanted it still
Everything I had was everything you never needed
Even after I begged for everything
I still had nothing I could tempt you with
Down here with the plebs
As we wind our mean webs

Still blind as you always were
You throw away everything we could never have
And how it makes us mad
And rips us up
Hands tied behind our backs
We still follow orders
From the higher orders

All that we do, we do for you
Who pissed on everything
Damned, doomed
Trapped and lost
Out there in the steppes of Cyberia

We die by numbers
Hang ourselves on the golden thread
Take the road
Follow the yellow brick road
To your Oz of the golden future
On the superhighway
Of disinformation
In the age of electronic
Ill communication
Frozen to the bone
On the steppes of Cyberia
In Cyberia

Hip-hop, skip
Jump to the rhythm
Of mass information
Laid bare on the silicon rock of communication
On the hyperlink
Of mal-information
Plugged in and socked out in Cyberia
Even after you pissed it all away

Leaving us the golden showers of frozen grass
Out here in Cyberia
One to zero and back again (Mean mean mathematics)

Elastic reality, deep in ports
Of your infoceans
Drowning in the frozen wastes
Of Cyberian waters
Superhyperlanguage
Micro macro chip
Of politics
Of infomation, documentation
Elastic dissociative
Creation unreality
Cyberia
Cyberia
Elastic reality
The last filament, holding the last man
To the last chip of life
Drowning in the frozen wastes
Of Cyberian waters
Superhyperlanguage
Micro macro chip
Of politics
Hyper information
Documentation
Cyberia
Cyberia
