Music and words by Nils Frykdahl

Utopian cyber-hippie this
is your world now
I guess you think it’s cool;
I guess you like it
Utopian cyber-zombie
shut the faaauuu
I guess it’s free for everybody
I guess you made a little money
A nation of what should
be human beings
Walking around like victims
in bad science-fiction
The borg is here now
The body-snatchers have come
And taken over what used
to be a cafe, a bus
a train, a classroom. The bodysnatchers
have come
Utopian cyber-hippie this
is your world now
Utopian cyber-zombie this
is your day in the sun
Utopian cyber-hippie shut
the door on the way out
Utopian cyber-zombie get that
thing out of my face and run
You’ve given the children a
gift that keeps on giving
They will never have known
the world without this gift
So here let us recall the malice
of old gods….spite!
You’ve opened the door
to another world
That’s been with us all along…
watching, waiting
Open the box Steal the fire
Taste it! Burn it! Break it!
O Pan! O Pandora! O Eve!
Prometheus Loki
Luce Fero Lucifero I bring
the light I bring the light
Placeless light Faceless Eye
Cannot live Never die
Let the earth swallow you whole
This gift is not mine

I hate the poetry
Download Myspace Facebook
I hate the language
I can’t believe I put this
garbage in a song
Just because it’s 2016 we don’t
all have to sing along
You can get laid on your
virtual planet
I’ll get mine where I don’t have
to plan it with the dead box
A dead box that blinks and
talks and fakes the rock
and might give you brain cancer
Ad for Dragon speech-recognition
software:
“Give the gift that gets
people talking”
People talking to a dragon
Leave the gift at the door
Shut it down Turn it off
Drop out
Get out get out get out get
out get out get out
Into the night Into the dark
Into black silence
Into the night Into the park
Into the forest
Past the gate Past the fountain
Into the cemetery
Under the light of the moon
we can dream of a world
before and after science
Under the light of the sun
we can live in a world
before and after dreams
