Lyrics:


What happened to your critical thinking x 2

It’s okay to not be okay
Live your best life
Be kind
Have some empathy
Speak truth to power
It’s your lived experience
Be your authentic self
Be fitter
Be happier

Speak your truth
As I enter this page
I feel we meet together
Or maybe not
Maybe as we hurtle down the avalanche
To the cul-de-sac of a non-
Descript nowhere land
Where J.G. Ballad once took a stand
Free ports, free what?

What happened to your critical thinking x 4

Transient meditations
Remote procedures
Slowly the deletion begins
The paragon of virtue
The pinnacle of despair
The apex of denial
The skyscrapers of untruth
Customised feeds

Net neutrality smart meters
Smart water
Smart fucking motorways
Body positivity
Believe in yourself
Imposter syndrome
Fuck that!

I don’t want to be admired
I demand no respect
I don’t want to be feared
I’d like to enter the gates of oblivion
With a lanyard round my neck
An aesthetic so bland
And

What happened to your critical thinking x 8
