lyrics
Memo redacted by a higher power
Flew in from corporate on the helicopter
The AV guy says that we’ve got a problem
Take it up with HR in California
It’s a small world
And it’s only getting smaller
We talk a lot about how we don't talk to one another
It’s a warm world
And it’s only getting warmer
Order now! We are almost out of life preservers
Sit on the floor turn on the television
Bask in the glow of the cosmic leftovers
You think you’re more important than the static
What are you then when you’re a jar of ashes?
It’s a sick world
And it’s only getting sicker
And you think you’ll solve the problem with a bumper sticker?
It’s a sad world
And it’s only getting sadder
And the pills we make 'em make us don't make us no gladder
bye-bi
everybody say hi to the disposable universe
and what's worse
hi-hi
see us waving goodbye
from that disposable universe
oh, same as the first!
I'm disposable and so are you and nothing you can do will prove to be of consequence to anyone involved but you and I'm replaceable and so were you and everything I do disproves my consequence to anyone when I'm replaced by you and I'm disposable and so are you and nothing you can do will prove to be of consequence to anyone involved but you and I'm replaceable and so were you and everything I do disproves my consequence to anyone when I'm replaced by you
