Plastic People
In the silicone era with the translucent sheen
From some college puke's dorm room, onto your screen
Your tweets, your memes, your high school, your blues
A new iron curtain to supply all your news
A pic of her breakfast, I thought Why?
That's when I knew they were getting us high
Posting lives lived in shrinkwrap perfection
Touting it all via daily reflection
Their goal is to sell you whatever they choose
Maybe you'll get it, anonymity we lose
Bubble-wrapped bimbos sporting bouncy foot gels
Affirming advantage for upgrading our cells
Promising an end to little disorders
Magic blue pills sure to throb in short order
A new generation, lost in space
And Plastic People in my face
And Plastic People in my face.
