[Chorus] Cog........ Cog........ In their machine Or cognitive machine? Machine. Cog....... [Interlude] Slog...... Slog...... Master of your fate? Or predestined to their hate? [Verse 1] Grog..... Grog..... Groggy as you wake Groggy as you wake See the control panel? Take!..... Take!..... Take a seat, grab the controllers Emergency lights, your life's not over Yet..... Yet..... [Refrain] It's time to take control! The dials are out of control! You must take the control! Take a sensory stimuli poll! Ignore it, and you're a fool! You'll be used like a tool! Like a baby, watch you drool! You think my words are cruel!? [Verse 2] Cog....... Cognitive dials out of alignment! It's obvious, your assignment! You're in your own control panel! And you can't change the channel! Read...... Read...... Read the inputs one by one Read the inputs till you're done Analyze the data crumbs See the insight that will come! [Interlude] Cog....... Slog...... Slog..... [Chorus] Cog in their machine Or cognitive machine? Machine. Cog....... [Bridge] Don't ignore the dials! This isn't the X-files! Sight and sound and smell! Taste and touch but more as well! Heat and pain and agency Yet even more there might be! Read them once and read them twice! You can live with odds better than dice! What's the problem? Identify! See your options - this is why! There's a cheat built in this game! We can optimize, not stay the same! Convert your informational energy! And become all that you can be! [Chorus] Cog........ Cog........ Cog in their machine Or cognitive machine? Machine. Cog....... [Chorus] Cog in their machine Or cognitive machine? Machine. Cog....... [Outro] Cog........ Cog........ Cog........ Cog........ Cog........ Cog........
