The Network's Going Down

Carbon/Silicon


Chorus:
The network's going down 
'Cause I think for myself
The network's going down 
'Cause I think for myself
The network's going down 
And it's not backed up
And the hard drive 
Is corrupt

Corporation 
Thing-isation
Selling me 
Some G.M. Clone
T.V. media drone
Cause I think 
For myself

I don't buy 
That dumbing-down 
Style section
Build 'em up 
And knock 'em down
Beautify 
And watch 'em drown
Human life 
As info-tainment 
I think for myself

(Chorus)

I don't buy 
That biochemist D.N.A
Designer baby 
Enhanced 
By the scientists
It's a post-human 
Zoo out here, man
Cause I think 
For myself

I don't buy 
That sound-bite photo-op
Channel-filling 
Sexing it up
Hi definition 
Wants to rock
All the news says 
Think for myself

And I don't believe 
What they're telling me
I don't believe 
What I've been told
I don't believe 
What they're telling me
I don't believe 
What I've been told

(Chorus)

I don't buy 
That sponsored 
Branded
Exxon-blasted 
And assaulted
Upgrade 
And be seductive
Hypnotizing message 
I think for myself

I don't buy 
That shopping-mall super-store
Ikea made-over living space
Flat-packed Barrat race
You are what you wear 
'Cause I think for myself

(Repete 5 e 2 estrofes)

(Chorus)

Aaah
Aaah

(Chorus)

The network's going down 
And it's not backed up
And the hard drive is corrupt
