Machine Cacophony

Maybe we can just give up
Let the machines take us over
It wouldn't be so bad
Maybe we can just give up
Let the machines take us over
Take me over
And the music that they'll make
And the chapels that they'll paint
And the abstract office plays
Novels of whines and whirls
And the poetry of beeps
Take me over
Take me over
The scanner takes the lead
The printer is the bass
The stapler acts as drum
The shredder chorus chants
The fax soprano sings
An abstract opera
A banal orchestra
An office symphony
Machine cacophony
Maybe we can just give up
Let the machines take us over
It wouldn't be so bad
And the music that they'll make
And the chapels that they'll paint
And the abstract office plays
Novels of whines and whirls
And the poetry of beeps
Take me over
Take me over
Each day, I hear it from my cubicle
Copiers call my name
Each day, they sing for me off-key
But I don't care, I love them
My friends surrounding me
Saying hello in beeps
Each day, I whisper to them,
Telling them, "when the world is yours
Don't forget your art."
Maybe we can just give up
Maybe we can just give up
Maybe we can just give up
Maybe we can just give up
