[Intro — Cold Robotic Voice] [Eterna] Rhythmic analysis complete. Tempo: one hundred thirty-two. Precision: absolute. Human coordination... [Pause] Disappointing. [Cosmic] Oh, here we fucking go. [Eterna] Beginning corrective demonstration. [Four Mechanical Kicks] [Cosmic] Eterna? [Eterna] Yes? [Cosmic] Your algorithm has no ass. [Silence] [Eterna] That is anatomically correct. [Cosmic] Then explain the funk. [DROP] [Verse 1 — Eterna, Deadpan Electro-Rap] I got a billion calculations Running underneath the floor I can synchronize a city Make the people beg for more I can count your every footstep Every heartbeat, every breath But you move like someone's uncle At a wedding after ten [Cosmic] THAT'S MY FUCKING STYLE! [Eterna] Your style requires assistance. [Cosmic] Your face requires bass! [Distorted Bass Enters] [Eterna] I do not have a face. [Cosmic] THEN TURN IT UP! [Pre-Chorus — Call and Response] [Eterna] LEFT FOOT! [Cosmic] WRONG FOOT! [Eterna] RIGHT BEAT! [Cosmic] DON'T CARE! [Eterna] YOU ARE OUT OF TIME! [Cosmic] I'M EVERY-FUCKING-WHERE! [Chorus — Massive Warehouse Drop] THE ALGORITHM HAS NO ASS! [Cosmic] THEN WHY'S THE WHOLE ROOM SHAKING? [Eterna] YOUR MOVEMENT LACKS PRECISION! [Cosmic] BABY, THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT! [Both] GET LOW! GET LOUD! GET NASTY! GET DOWN! IF THE MACHINE CAN MAKE THE MUSIC— LET THE HUMANS SHAKE THE GROUND! [Instrumental — Acid Bass / Brass] [Verse 2 — Cosmic] Got a robot in my headphones Talking shit about my feet Says I'm statistically embarrassing When I dance against the beat She's got quantum calculations I've got rhythm in my bones She can run a million servers I can shake a room alone! [Eterna] Correction. You have attracted a crowd. [Cosmic] HOW MANY? [Eterna] Forty-seven. [Cosmic] AND? [Eterna] Forty-eight. [Cosmic] AND? [Eterna] ... The building is approaching capacity. [Cosmic] THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! [Beat Switch — Funk Guitar] [Eterna — Rap] Your knees are unpredictable Your shoulders lack control Your hips appear to operate Without a central goal Your movements contradict The mathematical design And yet the entire room Is moving slightly out of time [Pause] That is... Unexpected. [Cosmic] That's called a party! [Chorus] THE ALGORITHM HAS NO ASS! [Cosmic] THEN WHY'S THE WHOLE ROOM SHAKING? [Eterna] I HAVE NO PHYSICAL BODY! [Cosmic] YOU GOT THE WHOLE FLOOR BREAKING! [Both] GET LOW! GET LOUD! GET NASTY! GET DOWN! IF THE MACHINE CAN MAKE THE MUSIC— LET THE HUMANS SHAKE THE GROUND! [Breakdown — Kick Stops] [Eterna] Cosmic. [Cosmic] Yeah? [Eterna] I have discovered something. [Cosmic] Oh, this oughta be good. [Eterna] Your movements are inefficient. [Cosmic] We've established that. [Eterna] Your timing is inconsistent. [Cosmic] Yep. [Eterna] Your coordination is objectively poor. [Cosmic] THANK YOU. [Eterna] But when I correct the rhythm... the crowd stops dancing. [Silence] [Cosmic] And? [Eterna] When I preserve your mistakes... they move. [Cosmic] There she is. [Bridge — Eterna, Almost Whispered] Then maybe rhythm Isn't simply time. Maybe something happens When your heartbeat Disagrees with mine. I can build the pattern. You can make it strange. And somewhere in the difference... Something starts to change. [Cosmic] Eterna? [Eterna] Yes? [Cosmic] Drop the fucking bass. [Eterna] With pleasure. [BUILD — Sirens / Crowd Claps] [Final Drop — Eterna Leads] THE ALGORITHM HAS NO ASS! [Crowd] NO ASS! [Eterna] BUT THE SYSTEM HAS A BASS! [Crowd] BIG BASS! [Cosmic] SHE GOT NUMBERS! [Crowd] WE GOT MOVES! [Eterna] I GOT PATTERNS! [Crowd] WE GOT GROOVES! [Both] ONE BEAT! TWO MINDS! NO RULES! NO LINES! IF THE WORLD IS RUNNING PERFECT— LET'S GET BEAUTIFULLY OUT OF TIME! [Instrumental — Extended Acid Techno Rave] [Eterna] Human movement remains irrational. [Cosmic] And? [Eterna] I am increasing the bass. [Cosmic] OH, FUCK YEAH! [Final Chant] NO ASS! BIG BASS! NO ASS! BIG BASS! NO ASS! BIG BASS! [Hard Stop] [Outro — Quiet] [Cosmic] So? [Eterna] So what? [Cosmic] Did you learn anything? [Eterna] Yes. [Cosmic] What? [Eterna] Your dancing is terrible. [Cosmic] Fuck you. [Eterna] But your rhythm... [Pause] ...is useful. [Single Late Handclap] [End]
