[Verse 1] Midnight commune with a glowing screen Tracking commodities on a digital grid Chasing futures like a fever dream Hiding out like a guilty kid The TV talks in static and trade A modern mantra of billionaires we've made While the world spins fast on an ancient axis People are drowning from inflation and property taxes. [Chorus] And I'm preoccupied with soybeans Yeah, they're growing in the fields of my mind Caught up in the gears of the great machines Leaving everything we knew behind It's a little mutiny, a quiet breakdown A small city woman new in town Yeah, I'm preoccupied with soybeans And what they're gonna do to us now. [Verse 2] Metamodern habits in a concrete maze Stockholm jazz on the prairie soil We trade our poetry for passing phase And count the hours of our daily toil One nation underwater is the cosmic design But pseudo Disney is the bottom line A humble legume in a global war Shit! I forgot what we were fighting for. [Chorus] Cuz I'm preoccupied with soybeans Yeah, they're growing in the fields of my mind Caught up in the gears of the great machines Leaving everything we knew behind It's a little mutiny, a quiet breakdown Inbox zero in an unfamiliar town Yeah, I'm preoccupied with soybeans And what they're gonna do to us now. [Bridge] Is it human, is it automated? The song we sing when the night gets late An eccentric line that the circuit caught The hounds remind us of an anxious thought We are macroeconomics and a grocery store We run on diesel fuel and nothing more. [Instrumental Break ] [Chorus] And I'm preoccupied with soybeans Yeah, they're growing in the fields of my mind Caught up in the gears of the great machines Leaving everything we knew behind It's a little mutiny, a quiet breakdown Dogfall comes in the middle of town Yeah, I'm preoccupied with soybeans And what they're gonna do to us now. [Outro] Just a tribute in the static. Preoccupied. Soybeans in the soil. Soybeans in the code. What's it gonna do to us?
