Synthetic World |
| Hey you, I’m up from the bayou |
| Where wildlife runs free |
| You could say that I’m country |
| But let me tell you what I see |
| Your world is plastic |
| Can see through to the other side |
| Your cities are made of wood |
| Antiques are what you’ve got inside |
| Houses are paper but folks don’t hear a word you say |
| Friendship’s like acid |
| It burns, burns, burns as it slides away |
| So you see, my patience is growin' thin |
| With this synthetic world we’re livin' in |
| The word imitation is goin' cross the nation |
| What’s real has become a freak |
| Someone’s tryin' to make me weak |
| Strange initials to keep me blind |
| Psychedelic music to blow my mind |
| So you see, my patience is growin' thin |
| With this synthetic world we’re livin' in |
| Spray to clear the air and its filled with spray |
| Makin' people die every day |
| Now I find I’m out of place |
| If I only have one face |
| All my friends have more than two |
| No longer must you be you |
| They found out how to transplant |
| Maybe it has, replaced can |
| So you see, my patience is growin' thin |
| With this synthetic world we’re livin' in |
| Na na na nee na na na na. |
