Oh look, another remake, how "brave" and "inspired" Let’s exhume a dead franchise that should’ve retired Slap some neon on the poster, call it "reimagined" Who needs a soul when the CGI is so grand? Remember when a song had a bridge and a heart? Now it’s just a loop designed for a shopping cart Back then, we bought a record for the crackle and the grit Now we rent a playlist where the algorithm fits. It’s the same old flavor in a shiny new skin A race to the bottom where the safest bets win Just a copy of a copy of a dream we once had Marketed to death by a corporate dad Eat your "content," don't ask for a change In a world of infinite choice, everything’s the same. "Give the people what they want!" the executive screams As he bleeds out the color from our collective dreams Twelve writers in a room, checking boxes and trends "Make the hook shorter so the 'engagement' never ends" We traded the "Starman" for a TikTok dance Traded cinematic art for a franchise's chance It’s 4K resolution of a blurry idea A polished piece of plastic for the modern era. Focus groups and data points, oh what a thrill! If the art doesn’t sell, give us the pill Of nostalgia bait and Easter eggs hidden in the frame While every single melody starts sounding the same. It’s the same old flavor in a shiny new skin A race to the bottom where the safest bets win Just a copy of a copy of a dream we once had Marketed to death by a corporate dad Eat your "content," don't ask for a change In a world of infinite choice, everything’s the same. More of the same... Groundbreaking. Revolutionary. Stunning. (Please insert your credit card to continue the loop) Is anyone actually listening? Or are we just scrolling to the end of the world?
