paul shapera - xander cale lyrics
han mi:
xander cale had gone to school for applied biology, but their unendorsed experiments in dna splicing, hyper cell mutation, and flesh enhancement, when discovered, earned them immediate expulsion. over their time at the college, however, they had secretly pilfered a range of lab equipment which they packed up along with the money they’d made giving the richer kids things like tails and organic breast and genital enlargements. a few years later you could find odd rumors floating around that for those interested in cutting edge cyber modification and trans human enhancements, there was a real life mad scientist working in the park

you try, you try, you try the best you can, you try until you die
you try the best you can
you try, you try, you try the best you can, you try until you die
you try the best you can
the shopogopolis where my mom grew up with her sister they despised
a life ofquiet desperation that they longed to leave behind
so one day when two boys showed up and spoke of sp+ce and souls
they followed them and that’s how they wound up inside a cult
the cult said angels coming soon to carry off the pure
renounce all s+x my children, out in sp+ce there’s bliss for sure
leave your body on the floor
…
procreation was with hoods and my aunt to a boy gave birth
named henry but years later he’d run off back into the world
my mom had twins, macayla and me, but macayla soon grew sick
“impurity” the cult screamed and forbid al treament
i begged my mom, we too must flee to save my sisters life
and so we left all the we had known one dark and fearful night
leave your lives there on the floor
…
my mom unsk!lled she got a job in the shopogopolis she once fled
doctors studied close my sister and then sadly shook their heads
a disease progressed so fast that my poor sister was locked in
to her body, she would never move or talk ever again
i swore an oath to save her but i knew i never would
i swore i’m tame biology by mind or hand or sword
leave your body on the floor
…
my experiments in college went too far or so i’ve heard
degenerate lost g+nius they said as they kicked me to the curb
my sister i would visit, but her mind it slowly bent
a sad, insane, flesh statue is all that’s left there of my twin
here in the park my experiments continue with success
i’ll crack the code to redesign, reform, rebuild the flesh
one day when angels fly in sp+ce to save all that they find
those angels they will be us in bodies redesigned
for something more
we’ll leave our bodies on the floor
you try, you try, you try the best you can, you try until you die
you try the best you can
you try, you try, you try the best you can, you try until you die
you try the best you can
