lyrics

A typical catastrophe,
I’m sick of all these atmospheric assholes coming after me
Space gangster, earth renegade
The mockery, ain’t no stopping me until I’m getting paid

The mission has course to take
Terraforming’s imminent your planet’s metamorphing late
Deep space flux with dark matter
Once the deal is set reveal the chest among the star pattern

Check the ansible as you were told
Shifting pocket universes cruising superluminal
Lock the positronic circuitry
Demonic in intention on a god-forbidden murder spree

Doing hits without the slightest trace
Never gonna catch me dipping in and out of hyperspace
Don’t get swallowed in the hollow abyss
Twist the computronium eject your Alderson Disk

BEWARE of the hive mind
They get you when you’re young man they’ve stung you for a life time
WATCH OUT for the GeneJacks
Who use compassion as a mask to guilt you over things past

Bets off if you know you can’t afford the wager
Otherwise you’ll end up being sold unto an organlegger
Synonymous with Al Capone
The stress is high but never did I feel like using alcolote

Cause when the tragedy’s felt
Sometimes you got to hold it down just like a gravity belt
The waldo’s always ready
To drop atomic meatballs on Topopulis spaghetti

The Flatlanders are a staggering lot
With their policies yet never seen an agony box
Oh they have? I’ll believe when you can show me it
Cause that’s like finding corpsicles and giving them a Jodie Grid

I get inspired by the symphonode
Everyday’s a challenge when you’re battling ballisticles
It ain’t fair but I don’t care a great deal
Because I never leave orbit without a Faraday shield

BEWARE of the hive mind
They get you when you’re young man they’ve stung you for a life time
WATCH OUT for the GeneJacks
Who use compassion as a mask to guilt you over things past
