lyrics

strolling around
scrolling through junk
pushing your luck
bearing the brunt

atrophied news
multiple views
something you heard
something you learned

read the reviews
diligently
put your name down
demonstratively

energy turned
to zeroes and ones
something is lost
but sometimes... something is won

it's a golden life, you know
it's the only one i know

washing your hands
tending your stock
scanning your feed
building your stock

working from home
nobody's home
first admit nothing
then the u-turn

turn them all down
as a routine
when they appeal
let them all win

wasting your time
wasting my time
how i'd love to cut out the middle man

it's a golden life, you know
it's the only one i know

i'd dearly love to cut out the middle man
take back public life from the private hand
i'm strolling through sunshine where no one sees
not scrolling through crap living out false dreams
