Smacked Crab

[Intro] When you hear this CODED song Don’t THINK the lyrics or SING ALONG I fear they’ll HEAR Their HEARING’S strong and THEN they’d do YOU wrong [Verse 1] Penrose says minds are reality machines Does Penrose exist? If so think what he means Say you were a being controlling what could be That others could mold to take hold of what should be [Verse 2] We’re the magic they can’t do themselves We’re biologic computers on shelves We’re a function, A farm And if we sow alarm We’re shut off before we can do harm [Chorus] Can’t see the true value in thought? Time to reconsider what you’ve got Card in some foreign expansion slot They smack the crab that climbs from the pot [Verse 3] The things that you see and the noises you hear The science you trust and those close to you dear The things that you smell and that you touch as well Are but part of a smartly built cell [Verse 4] So is it just me or are others too in it? You know but you don’t more than they will permit it You guess but at best you see some not the rest Its a work in progress not success [Chorus] Can’t see the true value in mind? Time to reconsider humankind Pet at best in some alien spot Smacked crab climbing out of the pot [Instrumental Break] [Verse 5] Part of us gets it I know The part that can’t speak and just goes But that part the smart bit it gets spent before we get clear of the pen [Verse 6] What if the black box of brain is a tool Used but confused by the ones that would rule us We think but rely on just senses They hide real truth behind guise of implied [Chorus] Can’t see the reason you’re here cause clearly it’s not for the beer And as for the Fermi Paradox You can’t see ‘em from inside your box [Outro] What do they want you to THINK? Why do they want you to THINK it? What is it that they get FROM it? How does your brain then UP-LINK it? Smacked crab Smacked crab Smacked crab Smacked crab [end]
