The rap flow spits, vinyl grit, piles of trash drift
In the food chain’s vein, plastic streams twist
Shape-shift body, bend, break, reform
Breathing in dust storms, lies as the norm

Rust runs silent in my blood’s own stream
Microscope shows we’re tearing at the seam

No longer human, maybe "The Thing" in my head
Semtex heartbeat, set to vaporize

That voice cuts deeper than alarm bells scream
Morning gridlock, crushed thoughts in the stream
Pocket-screen smile, finger hides the scar
Clockwork eyes watch, they know who you are

"Ludovico technique", to be pure, right and clean
Hide my wounds with a click, where does my life begin?

A 3D-printed brain, but wait
that’s not for me
You know the clockwork people standing over me?

Is the city laughin’? Or laughin’ on cue?
Tell me what’s fun, what’s funny to you?
What’s worth laughin’ at — tell me the truth
...But you know it’s here, don’t you?

(Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo, Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo)
(When I'm calling)
(Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo, Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo)
(Will you answer)
(Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo, Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo)

Crosswalk currents, data in the flood
Ballots weighed lighter than consumer blood
Rootless in pots like "Léon"'s green friend
Drifting through the streets, or needing someone else around
A 3D-printed gun in hands that bend
Anyone can become a killer in the end

Semtex finale, slideshow life
Everything’s about to fall in this broken strife

Is the city laughin’? Or laughin’ on cue?
Tell me what’s fun, what’s funny to you? 
What’s worth laughin’ at — tell me the truth
...Maybe I just wanna believe a few

Fresh latte steam, and the film lights burn
Eye-lock blush, make my stomach turn

Dressed up for the first time in a while, it's true
It's raining on "Shawshank", and I'm feeling new

No meticulous plan, but like "Indian Love Call," you see
My Deus Ex Machina might appear to me today, just you wait and see

Is the city laughin’? Or laughin’ on cue?
Tell me what’s fun, what’s funny to you? 
What’s worth laughin’ at — tell me the truth
...Maybe I just wanna believe a few
