Spirit of the Age |
I would’ve liked you to have been deep frozen too |
And waiting still as fresh in your flesh for my return to Earth |
But your father refused to sign the forms to freeze you |
Let’s see you’d be about 60 now |
And long dead by the time I return to Earth |
My time held dreams were full of you |
As you were when I left, still underage |
Your android replica is playing up again, it’s no joke |
When she comes she moans another’s name |
That’s the spirit of the age |
That’s the spirit of the age |
That’s the spirit of the age |
That’s the spirit of the age |
Ah, the spirit of the age |
That’s the spirit of the age |
Ah, the spirit of the age |
That is the spirit of the age |
I am a clone, I am not alone |
Every fiber of my flesh and bone is identical to the others |
Everything I say is in the same tone |
As my test tube brother’s voice there is no choice between us |
If you had ever seen us you’d rejoice in your uniqueness |
And consider every weakness something special of your own |
Being a clone I have no flaws to identify |
Even this doggerel that pours from my pen |
Has just been written by another twenty telepathic men |
Oh, word for word, it says: |
«Oh, for the wings of any bird, other than a battery hen» |
