mavis staples – rise of the robots lyrics
oh my precious sold out reputation
here they come,
they’re marching my way again,
i can see my reflection in their metallic skin
here they come,
they’re coming my way again,
conformity is their staple and status their weapon
oh my precious sold out reputation,
it means so much more than my beliefs
will i face full attack from you? will i break again like i’ve been known to?
falling face first on my conscience today, but it’s so much more easier this way
come to me, my little sweet,
i’ve got scores of processed friends for you to meet
you’ve always been my favorite dish, you’re number 85 on my list
come to me my little baby,
please say yes not no or maybe,
come to me my little trat, the system’s hungry and it wants to eat
oh my precious sold out reputation,
it means so much more than my beliefs
will i face full attack from you? will i break again like i’ve been known to?
falling face first on my conscience today, but it’s so much more easier this way
i already know that you don’t love me so,
and if i stay the same you’ll walk away
will i face full attack from you? will i break again like i’ve been known to?
falling face first on my conscience today, but it’s so much more easier this way
