Birdie |
| Take off, little winged creature |
| It’s nothing but teens in ravines |
| And antics on concrete down here |
| And are you really as free as all the great songs would have me believe? |
| Let me tell you why some day, birdie, you’re gonna envy me |
| Some dream of a world written in lines of code |
| Well, I hope they engineer out politics, romance, and edifice |
| Two outta three ain’t bad |
| Some envision a state governed by laws of business |
| Merger and acquisition instead of violence on nations |
| Where do I sign up? |
| Take off, little winged creature |
| It’s nothing but fallen debris, strollers, and babies down here |
| And you may be up in the sky |
| But our paradigms are just as deep and just as wide |
| What with all our best attempts at transcendence |
| Something’s bound to take |
| Soon, we’ll live in a global culture devoid of gender or race |
| There’s just one tiny line: |
| You’re either born behind or you’re free to peek inside |
| Life as just narrative, metadata in aggregate |
| Where the enigma of humanity’s wrapped up finally |
| That, as they say, is that |
| Oh, that day can’t come soon enough |
| It’ll be so glorious |
| When they finally find out what’s bugging us |
