Pecked my way through the feed Found a flock of bad ideas World peace in a jar With the lid still on, dear They call it progress I call it birdseed law Cream in the basement Top shelf lost its flaw [Pre-Chorus] One big happy code All grin, no soul Tiny beaks on the wheel Spinning out control [Chorus] Birdbrain algorithm Tap-tap, wrong rhythm Birdbrain algorithm Same joke, new prism Cream fell flat Truth got small I don't buy that Not at all [Verse 2] I saw the slogan parade March in borrowed shoes Every horn had a halo Every halo had screws You built a glass utopia Then sold the frame for parts Now the goldfish saints Are giving TED Talk hearts [Pre-Chorus] One big happy code All grin, no soul Tiny beaks on the wheel Spinning out control [Chorus] Birdbrain algorithm Tap-tap, wrong rhythm Birdbrain algorithm Same joke, new prism Cream fell flat Truth got small I don't buy that Not at all [Bridge] If peace is a poster Then print it with teeth If hope is a ladder Let it scrape from beneath I want a new metaphor That can bite back clean Not a sugar-coated cage With a smiley-screen sheen [Chorus] Birdbrain algorithm Tap-tap, wrong rhythm Birdbrain algorithm Same joke, new prism Cream fell flat Truth got small I don't buy that Not at all
