about

Again, it's about technology. Isn't it wonderful? It has set most of us free from the daily fight for simple survival, but perhaps an obsessive dependence on technology over humanity risks leading us into a new form of incarceration.
There is a cathartic moment when all becomes clear. But the question remains... as mushrooms grow naturally in the forest, why does someone still need to grow them and who should that person be? And where the fuck did those Cossacks come from?

lyrics

I've got a special car in my garage, it can even drive itself.
I've got a little probe for my insides, guarantees me perfect health.
I've got a brand new AI computer, makes the decisions in my life.
I've got synthetic friends in my bedroom, come and meet my silicone wife.

I've got a lot of free time to think now, worry about things I don't understand.
I've got to lie in my bed till I stink, cause nobody works in our new promised land.
I've got a lot of friends who are like me, though I have never met one yet.
I've got a life through the mirror of high tec, I live in a cyber oubliette.

Somebody still needs to grow the mushrooms,
Somebody still needs to make the tea.
Somebody still needs to clean the bathroom,
Somebody still needs to set you free!
